Year 9 Careers Afternoon
On Monday 27 November, Week 9, the Year 9 students will spend the afternoon preparing for the needs of QCAA and future lifetime studies. The year 9 students will be provided with their Learner Unique Identifier (LUI) supplied by the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA). This LUI will be used by the students to set up their QCAA student portal. This portal will allow students to access their subjects that they are enrolled in for year 11 and 12 which will also allow them to supervise their QCE points earned from year 10 to 12. The students will also be required to apply for a Unique Student Identifier (USI) number. This USI number is a private identifier which will be used by each student across their working life for when they enrol into courses for future study. Other activities planned for the day include an introduction into work experience in year 10, school-based apprenticeship and traineeship opportunities and micro-skill opportunities in year 10, 2024.
In preparation for these activities, the year 9 students will be required to provide the following on the day planned:
- A current Medicare Card (other forms of Identification can be used such as a current Australian passport, Australian Birth Certificate or Learners Drivers Licence).
- A personal email address (not a college email)
- Mobile phone (if the student has one).
