Career education is essential infrastructure

This National Skills Week, CICA highlights the critical role that high-quality career education and trusted information play in strengthening Australia’s skills and training system.

By breaking down gender bias, challenging stereotypes, and showcasing the value of VET alongside university, career education ensures every Australian can make informed choices, pursue meaningful pathways, and contribute to national productivity.

It’s time we treat career education not as optional, but as foundational to skills, jobs, and opportunity.
