Mildura RCS networks with careers advisers
Links between schools and local industry have been enhanced through a professional development program run by the Northern Mallee Local learning and Employment Network (NMLLEN) and involving the Mildura Regional Clinical School.
Mark Heald, Academic coordinator for Year 4 and 5 students, showcased the Mildura Regional Clinical School to 18 local careers advisors on a tour of the facility.
They also took in an information session around the requirements needed for entry into medicine and the different pathways open to rural students, which they were happy to take back to their individual organisations and share with students in the upper secondary year levels.
Year 3 medical students bought a touch of realism to the information-sharing session with an overview of both their learning and personal experiences at Mildura’s clinical school.
