Y Careers & CatholicCare Wollongong: Creating Job Opportunities for Young People

We’re excited to announce our partnership with CatholicCare Wollongong, which has welcomed two trainees into their team! One trainee is focusing on Outside of School Hours Care, working towards a Certificate III in Outside of School Hours Care, while the other is pursuing a Diploma in Early Childhood Education.
Through this collaboration, these trainees are gaining hands-on experience in a supportive environment while working towards a nationally recognised qualification.

This partnership is more than just a job placement, it’s about building a skilled workforce, providing career pathways, and ensuring young people are set up for long-term success.
With CatholicCare Wollongong’s strong commitment to empowering individuals and building positive futures, this partnership aligns perfectly with our mission to create meaningful employment opportunities.
Y Careers Executive Director, Amaresh, shares:
