The program will begin with a four-hour online career testing session run by Dr Marian Kratzing, a Careers Psychologist. Dr Kratzing has developed a unique career profiling system which she and her colleagues provide to many schools in Sydney.
In the profiling session, students will complete several questionnaires and tests designed to assess a variety of factors that are important in helping students select a University (ATAR) or Vocational (NON-ATAR) career pathway at school and beyond.

Following their interview, students will be provided with an action plan to follow in order to investigate career alternatives more thoroughly that they have selected through the assessment process. Students will be supported in their research into different career and course options.
