Year 9 & 10 Green Light Day Initiative

In NSW, more than 500,000 people are employed in transport and logistics. Freight volumes are expected to double in the next twenty years and the demand for skilled transport and logistics workers is increasing, as our population and freight volumes grow.

Twenty Year 9 and 10 students from Strathfield South were selected to be a part of the Green Light Day Initiative, where they were able to get a first-hand look at some of the roles and potential job opportunities around, logistics managers, freight loaders, forklift operators, and train and truck drivers.

Students received practical career advice from people working in the industry and from TAFE NSW, and had the opportunity for an onsite visit at Sydney Intermodal Terminal in Chullora (Pacific National).
