Subject Preferences and Careers Expo

Explore the Possibility. Choose with Confidence.

The Subject Preferences and Careers Expo provides students and their families with an invaluable opportunity to explore the wide range of subjects on offer at JPC as well as gain up to date advice regarding pathways, tertiary courses and Vocational Education and Training (VET) courses.

On the evening, teachers from each Learning Area will provide detail on subject and elective offerings, to assist in subject selection. Representatives from different tertiary institutions will be available to answer any questions regarding pathways after secondary education.

The Expo is suitable for students in all year levels with a greater focus for students currently in Years 7 to 12.
