Amy’s journey from aspiring cable jointer to industry standout showcases the transformative power of vocational education.
Amy sought a career outdoors, in a team, with new challenges every day. Thanks to #VET, Amy is now the youngest and only female cable jointer at her worksite.
As Amy puts it, “VET gave me what felt like purpose. It gave me a career I now love and opened my eyes to the importance of trades.”
The Hon Brendan O`Connor MP has emphasized that BuildSkills, will work across the VET sector with educators and training providers to develop world-leading qualifications and solutions, bridging skills gaps for workers and employers.
