Y Careers Launches Possibl+ to Empower Young People

HEX

Y Careers, in partnership with leading Australian EdTech company HEX, is proud to announce the launch of the Possibl+ Accelerator Program, powered by HEX, a bold new initiative designed to fast-track innovation and nurture the next generation of leaders across the education and care industries.


Over 12 transformative weeks, early-career professionals aged 18–26 will be given the tools, support and real-world experiences they need to lead change from within. 

Through immersive masterclasses, market research and guided prototyping, participants will co-create practical, tested solutions to some of the sector’s most pressing challenges.


But this program isn’t just about upskilling individuals—it’s about reimagining the future of care from the inside out.
As the education and care sectors evolve, so too must the teams that power them. 


For employers, this is a unique opportunity to invest in emerging talent, unlocking creativity, boosting engagement and building a pipeline of future leaders.

 


By enrolling young team members, organisations gain:


•    Fresh ideas and home-grown innovation
•    Higher staff retention and early-career engagement
•    A pipeline of emerging leaders
•    Real-world problem-solving that directly benefits the workplace



“This is a fantastic opportunity for employers to back the next generation. These young people bring energy, insight and innovation to the care economy—and they’re ready to meet the sector’s biggest challenges head-on.” 
— Amaresh Devanesen, Executive Director, Y Careers


At the same time, it’s a powerful invitation for young people already working in care—whether in early childhood education, aged care, outside school hours care, or disability support to step up and stand out.
 


For those ready to make a real difference, the Accelerator Program offers a launchpad into leadership, giving participants the opportunity to grow their skills, amplify their voices and create meaningful impact in their own communities.


What Participants Will Gain

  • Practical tools to lead and innovate in the care sector
  • Hands-on experience solving real problems
  • Confidence, credibility and leadership capability
  • A powerful network of peers, mentors and changemakers



“This program is your launchpad. You’ll learn how to see problems differently, spark bold ideas, and create real change in the places that need it most. Along the way, you’ll build a network of mentors and future leaders who believe in your potential and walk away knowing that you have what it takes to shape the future of care.”  
Jeanette Cheah CEO and CO-FOUNDER of HEX
