About

 

 

Schools Industry Partnership (SIP) is a not-for-profit incorporated association based in Western Sydney governed by a volunteer board representing key stakeholders and partners in our mission, from school systems, TAFE, local government, chambers of commerce and employers within the community. The express purpose of our organisation is to support education and career pathways.

We work with young people to help them discover their career passion and how to transform their skills leading to real jobs.

Established in 1995, SIP has been involved in a variety of different services and programs under various funding arrangements. Some of these ventures include Work Inspiration, the Bright Futures campaign, and Career Advice Australia.

Under current funding, SIP is involved in the Work Placement program and the Transition to Work service. Since its inception SIP has successfully coordinated the Work Placement program, proudly placing over 50,000 students, as well as directly helping hundreds of young people into employment. SIP is also providing the Australian Government’s Transition to Work service, which exists to enable, educate and equip young people in their journey to employment.

Now launching Inspiring the Future Australia, SIP is keen to work with like-minded individuals and organisations to inspire young people across Australia.
