Career Education

Career education is a lifelong commitment for each and every one of us. As Mr Seaha, The Careers Counsellor, says, "Effective career assessment, guidance and planning takes time. People who invest time and sit down with an advisor to discuss and understand their options make better choices."

Research indicates that future generations may experience six career changes in their life-time. The School's newly endorsed Strategic Design recognises this and aims to promote life-long learning and to encourage students to develop the skills that will allow them to deal successfully with transitions in their careers. The future focus of career education will be to provide quality tertiary programme advice - assisting girls to chose secondary subjects and tertiary programmes that provide flexibility and, importantly, reflect their personal interests and passion for learning.

In an extension of the careers services provided to our students, the School also offers individual careers counselling to the wider Girls Grammar community. Past students are encouraged to take advantage of these services and particularly Mr Seaha's expertise and knowledge of QTAC and the tertiary sector if considering second degrees, postgraduate studies or a change of course.

Mr Seaha can be contacted at the School by email on careers@bggs.qld.edu.au or by telephoning (617) 3332 1300 .
