careertips.net.au has been developed specifically as an information guide, resource kit and referral source for people with disabilities who are in their final years of school, who are about to commence or are undertaking vocational education and training (VET) studies, or university studies, or have recently graduated from one of these pathways. careertips.net.au is accessible for students with disabilities in metropolitan, rural and remote localities - helping to break down the dual disadvantage of disability and isolation experienced by many non-metropolitan students with disabilities. careertips.net.au is designed to help people with disabilities get their careers on track from the outset by helping them to clarify what they would like to do in the future, what courses would best help them secure later employment in their chosen career, how to get into and successfully complete those courses, and how to get the job they want after they graduate. Many other people and services can help students with disabilities in achieving their study and career goals. For this reason, careertips.net.au also has separate areas that have been specifically designed for career advisers, lecturers, disability officers, mentors, disability employment agencies and prospective employers. careertips.net.au was developed by EDGE Employment Solutions Inc, Perth, Western Australia with funding from the Western Australian Department of Education and Training. Careertips.net.au is maintained as part of the Disability Co-ordination Program funded by the Commonwealth Government Department of Education Science and Training and auspiced by EDGE Employment Solutions.
