The 2009 Biennial Conference will be held at Deakin University Geelong Waurn Ponds Campus from Sunday December 6 to Tuesday December 8 2009. It is anticipated that there will be between 250 and 300 delegates at this conference. The conference is being developed around four key themes:

  • School practice and change management: aims to explore how career practitioners can effect change in their schools to implement career development culture
  • Better career conversations: will examine how career practitioners can improve their counselling through counselling techniques that handle large cohorts of students.
  • Changing patterns of work: explores new and emerging industries, skill shortages, preparing students for future patterns of work.
  • Culture counts: continuing on from our 2007 theme, we explore how career practitioners can examine their practice to ensure they meet the needs of all their students.

Workshops will offer practical ideas or resources for career practitioners to implement in their schools. The workshop equal spread of careers education, counselling, VET in schools, VCAL, MIP's, LLEN and LCP activities.
