2025 Mansfield Careers Expo

Country Universities Centre Ovens Murray Mansfield through, its ‘Peak Pathways’ program, organised the second Mansfield Career Expo held at the Mansfield Performing Arts Centre on 9 September. Over twenty exhibitors made the most of the opportunity to connect with local students. Represented were a mix of local businesses, community groups and government organisations. Students were able to source information regarding university courses, apprenticeships, traineeships, Services Australia assistance, local employment and local organisations.

Students from Mansfield Secondary College, Indi College and the local home schooling group took advantage of a local Careers Expo engage with exhibitors, increasing their knowledge of local careers and training available. Many higher education courses are now offered totally online or with hybrid options, making study very accessible for rural and remote students. This makes the regional study hubs, such as CUC Ovens Murray, an important part of the remote studying option. The number of students accessing the Mansfield CUC has increased steadily since the opening in 2022 and we welcome any students studying Year 12, or a university course or a TAFE certificate 3 or 4 to register for free become a part of the Mansfield CUC.
