In an Australian first, 18 students from across the Hunter this week commenced a unique Vocational Education and Training (VET) pre-employment program which includes previously unconnected TAFE modules and niche professional placement to provide a clear pathway to STEM careers and the jobs of the future.

STEM-ships have been developed by Regional Development Australia (RDA) Hunter’s ME Program in partnership with the Department of Industry (Training Services NSW) and Hunter TAFE.

Check out our website and upcoming newsletters for further details about the program and participating students.
