VOCATIONAL EDUCATION AND TRAINING — CAREER TASTER
PROGRAM
650. Hon SOPHIA MOERMOND to the parliamentary secretary
representing the Minister for Training and Workforce Development:
I refer to the year 9 career taster
program, which was deemed a success in this year's budget.
(1) How many schools have
participated in the program since its inception?
(2) How many students overall have
participated in the program?

AnswerView source ↗

I thank the member for some notice
of the question. The following answer has been provided to me by the Minister
for Training and Workforce Development.
(1) In 2022, 178 schools participated in the career taster
program. In 2023, 266 schools participated in the CTP . It is worth
noting that the 2023 figure includes schools that participated in 2022.
Combining the 2022 and 2023 figures would result in a duplicate count.
(2) In 2022 and 2023, 30 088 year 9
students participated in the program.
