About the Inspiring the Future Australia Campaign Inspiring the Future (ITF) Australia is a national campaign to give every school student the opportunity to be inspired and motivated by volunteers from a wide range of occupations and industries at all levels. Workplace volunteers sign up on the ITF online platform where they create a personal profile including school regions they are willing to travel to on invitation. Teachers sign up online for free to search for and invite registered volunteers into their school to share their career story or help in other ways. ITF challenges gender, cultural and socio-economic stereotyping, broadens students’ career horizons and helps to illustrate the relevance of their classroom studies to workplace applications. The more connections that school students have with people from the workplace, the better equipped they are to make informed decisions about their future study and career options and to gain meaningful employment. ITF expands the number of those connections, especially for students with limited role models, living in families experiencing intergenerational unemployment and other types of entrenched social disadvantage. https://www.inspiringthefuture.org.au/page/homepage School Industry Partnership At Schools Industry Partnership (SIP), they believe that every young person has a gift or talent inside them. the team st SIP work with young people to help them discover their career passion and how to transform their skills leading to real jobs.
