LAUNCH 2026: Learn. Aspire. Unlock New Career Horizons 🎉
The BUSY At Work Transition to Work team was proud to be part of LAUNCH 2026, helping connect young people with employers, training providers and community partners at Bunjil Place in Melbourne’s south-east.
Over 600 young people came together for a day focused on exploring career pathways, building confidence and opening up conversations about what comes next.
With 28 exhibitors representing employers, training providers, further education organisations and employment services, attendees explored a wide range of career pathways, gained practical advice and made valuable industry connections.
The day featured three engaging masterclasses:
✅ Building Futures
✅ Industry in Motion
✅ Careers That Matter
Through conversations with the Transition to Work team and opportunities shared via the dedicated job board, young people were able to connect their interests, skills and goals with real career pathways.
LAUNCH 2026 was made possible through a collaboration between BUSY At Work, Asuria, City of Casey and the Local Jobs Program. The event was officially opened by City of Casey Mayor Cr Stefan Koomen and featured an address from Minister for Skills and Training, Hon Andrew Giles MP.
Thank you to everyone who attended, exhibited and contributed to making LAUNCH 2026 such a valuable day of learning, connection and opportunity for the next generation.

A career change, a new qualification and a step closer to events management 👏
Through the Skilling Queenslanders for Work program, delivered by BUSY At Work, Marguerite completed a Certificate II in Hospitality while building practical skills in a real hospitality setting and gaining a clearer understanding of where those skills could take her.
As part of the program, Marguerite trained on site at a local hotel, gaining insight into the pace, structure and demands of the hospitality industry. It also gave her the chance to demonstrate the reliability, energy and attention to detail that helped her secure her new casual role in the hotel’s banquets and events team.
BUSY At Work is proud to deliver programs that help job seekers build skills, confidence and meaningful connections with employers.

National Reconciliation Week may be ending, but the responsibility continues 💛
This year’s theme, All In, has been a powerful reminder that reconciliation is shaped by the conversations, learning and actions that continue beyond a single week.
Yesterday, BUSY staff and Board members came together for an internal panel discussion, beginning with a Welcome to Country by Luther Cora, a prominent Yugambeh Aboriginal cultural leader and storyteller, alongside a traditional dance performance.
The panel featured Paul Dodd, a Bundjalung Man from northern NSW and Owner of Corporate Culcha; Troy Stubbs, Regional Manager at BUSY At Work; Kerry Gibb, Chair of The BUSY Group; and Lochy O`Loughlin, a former student from The BUSY School Cleveland Campus, who each shared valuable perspectives on reconciliation, learning and shared responsibility.
Thank you to The BUSY Group Reconciliation Action Plan Committee and everyone involved in bringing this important event together.
Reconciliation is not a moment. It is an ongoing commitment, and it takes all of us.
