Gone are the days of photocopying or stuffing envelopes while on work experience! As the first Australian mining company to develop a Work Inspiration program, career seekers who set foot in Downer Mining workplaces broaden their perspectives and develop their aspirations.

Experience for work is a new way of doing work experience, based on the internationally successful Work Inspirations model. In Geelong  the Food and fibre, Health, and Advanced Manufacturing industries are supporting career seekers to experience their industry in an exciting and relevant way.  It’s  part of an Australia wide move.  Nationally 54 organisations  are offering a new way to experience an inspirational work place.

In Victoria  these are:  

• Beechworth Health Service
• Charles Sturt University
• Employment and Education
• FYA
• L’Oreal
• Lander and Rogers
