Industry Insight Series

Our new Industry Insight Night Series brings students and families together with universities, professionals, and alumni to explore high-impact career pathways. Each session focuses on a different industry and is designed to provide clear, practical insights into study options, entry pathways, future careers, and real-world experiences.


Term 4 - 2026 Focus: Careers in Health

Industry Insight Night

WHEN: Health Sciences - TBC
TIME:
5pm - 6:30pm
WHERE:
Caringbah High School Hall

 

Engineeering - 550 attendees (Term 3)

This event offers an introductory, honest, and highly informative look at pathways into Engineering. Students and parents will hear directly from universities, industry professionals, and alumni who are currently studying or working across a range of engineering fields.

Our speakers will walk students and families through the realities of an engineering pathway, from subject selection and university options to specialisations, industry experience, and future career opportunities in a rapidly evolving, technology-driven world.

 

Health Sciences - Term 4 Finale!

Health Sciences and Applied Science are among the most popular and rapidly evolving career areas, and currently sit at the very top of the Class of 2027's career interests!

From Occupational Therapy, Physiotherapy and Speech Pathology to Nursing, Paramedicine, Radiography and Music Therapy, the health sector offers an extraordinary range of rewarding careers, each with its own opportunities to make a meaningful difference in people's lives.

For our final Industry Insight Night of 2026, we're bringing together representatives from leading tertiary institutions, healthcare professionals and industry experts across a diverse range of health disciplines to share their knowledge, experiences and insights.

Students and parents will have the opportunity to explore what these careers actually look like, understand university pathways and entry requirements, discover emerging opportunities across the healthcare sector, and hear firsthand what it takes to build a successful career in health.

Whether students already have their hearts set on a particular profession or are just beginning to explore the possibilities, this evening promises to be an invaluable opportunity to connect, ask questions and discover where a future in health could take them.

We're going out with a bang in 2026, and we'd love to see you there!

 

Arts, Law and Communications - 250 Attendees (Term 3)

Arts, Law and Communications open the door to some of the most diverse and flexible career pathways out there. There’s no single “track”, instead, students shape their direction through interests, skills, experiences and opportunities along the way.

At this event, students and parents will hear from universities, industry professionals and alumni who have taken very different paths, from media and journalism to law, policy, film and television, history, publishing, sociology, psychology and cultural studies.

We’ll explore how these pathways actually work in the real world, how to choose subjects and degrees without locking yourself in, how to build relevant experience along the way, and how these industries connect to a wide range of future careers that often don’t follow a straight line.
