Health & Community Services
Will your choice of career provide opportunity and reward?
While it’s probably your compassion, empathy and interest in health and fitness that has drawn you to this branch of learning, it doesn’t hurt to know that graduate job prospects are very good.
An escalating birth-rate, ageing population and the ever-increasing importance placed on the community sector’s role in providing services and facilities means new job opportunities in the field are emerging rapidly.
In fact research suggests that it is one of Australia’s fastest growing industries and forecasts that it will provide the largest number of new jobs over the next five years.
