Career Teachers’ Day

Geelong Tech School is always on the lookout for career pathways that may not be well-known.

Through a scientific and technological lens, we’ve found that all modern and future jobs require understanding many technologies. It turns out that our visit to Victoria Police and V/Line found some not-so-well-known roles that students might find interesting.

At V/Line, electrical trades and electrical engineers will always find a well-regarded place. Less well-known roles include network administration, cybersecurity operations, and asset maintenance. Victoria Police use a vast amount of technology to support their people in the field, detect and solve crime and ensure evidence is solidly supported. Besides being a police officer, there are opportunities to become a protective services officer (PSO), a police custody officer (PCO), or a Victorian Public Service (VPS) employee.

We also toured William Angliss Institute, where the flight attendant training section featured real aircraft seats!

Thanks to the Geelong Careers Teachers’ Association for the chance to hear about these careers and to our rock star presenters – Max and Tilly at Williams Angliss, Sierra Espinosa at V/Line and Ash Rasooli at Victoria Police.
