Construction Skills Queensland site visit to promote partnerships with high school leavers

Earlier this month, the Caboolture Hospital Redevelopment proudly held a Construction Skills Queensland (CSQ) Teacher Development Day with teachers and career advisors from various schools.

Representatives from Grace Lutheran College, Caboolture State High School, Padua College, Somerville House, and Bracken Ridge State High School attended.

The purpose of this Teacher Development Day was to connect Vocational Education and Training (VET) Coordinators with construction industry contacts to assist school leavers in making decisions about their future careers and the different pathways available into the construction industry.

Representatives of the Lendlease project team and consultants working on the Caboolture Hospital Redevelopment Project presented to the group and shared stories of their own career journeys.

The group was then treated to a site walk to see first-hand the construction processes and discuss the complexities faced by our project delivery team.
