Real Impact
CareerTrackers partners with Australian universities to support Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander students to excel in their degrees and step into careers they’re proud of.
Through paid internships and a powerful community network, we provide the practical experience students need to achieve excellence – at university and beyond.
To ensure studies come first, internships are completed during university holidays. Every intern earns a competitive wage, directly easing the financial pressures that often lead to student attrition.
University
Interns are students first. Dedicated advisors ensure they stay on track throughout their journey in our program. We provide you with transparent reporting on student learnings and competencies as they develop professionally.
Internships
Students access a national network of paid internships across diverse industries. Our unique and comprehensive curriculum also helps them acquire the graduate skills employers are looking for, giving your students a competitive edge.
Alumni Community
Graduates join a proud network of Indigenous alumni that reflects the strength of your institution. They serve as role models for future First Nations professionals and often return to mentor and inspire students.
