– ANNOUNCEMENT –

As you are aware, since Saturday 23 April, the Perth and Peel region has been in a COVID-19 induced lock-down. On Monday (26 April) the Premier, Mark McGowan, announced an end to the most severe aspects of the lock-down but maintained a number of measures that impose restrictions on running the Careers Expo. Our understanding is that based on circumstances not changing, we will be able to stage the event this coming Saturday (1 May) and Sunday (2 May) only. It is our intention to do this. On this basis, the following arrangements will apply:

We will not be open on with Thursday, 29 April or Friday 30 April.

We will stage the expo between 10:00am and 4:00pm on both Saturday and Sunday and you are free to attend on either of those days.

Subject to State Government advice, we may need to enforce mandatory mask wearing at the expo.

We understand that these arrangements may not suit everyone but we believe they strike a balance between cancelling the event and giving people an opportunity to explore their career options.

Please be patient over the next few days as we work to reset plans.

The Careers Expo & VET Expo feature all of the State’s universities together with a number of out-of-state institutions; many of the local technical colleges; a host of para-professional and vocational education training organisations; and a variety of careers and employment advisory agencies.
