Young people aged 13-19.
You can enroll in as many programs as you like but we recommend sticking to one virtual experience at a time so you can get the most out of the program.
You can start a program whenever you want, whether thatâs the school holidays or the regular school term.
Typically our virtual work experience programs last 4 weeks.
Our virtual programs are completely online hence no in-person or physical presence is required. Although students are expected to engage with us and our industry partners during our video check-ins.
