​​​​​​​​​​Rebecca Meyer is our Transition Pathways Officer.

Rebecca has a wealth of knowledge in the Employment & Training sector.​

As a Transition Pathways Officer, the priorities align with the Education Departments Equity & Excellence priorities:

  • supporting every student with a plan to stay on track to attainment and meaningful post-school pathways
  • positive transitions and knowing the post-school destination of every student
Transition Pathways Officer's achieve this through:
  • Building strong relationships to ensure all students have a confirmed post-school destination
  • Developing and managing formal and informal partnerships with business, industry, education and training providers, parents and other key stakeholders to package case management support and work experience for individual students
  • Providing assistance and guiding students to services to prepare young people for post-school pathways
  • Develop engagement activities and market the benefits of School Based Traineeships, Apprenticeships and Vocational Training as a career pathway preference for students
  • Organising and managing careers events held at the school/college for students, involving various organisations for vocational training, tertiary education and local employers​

Work Experience​​

Students will have the opportunity to do Work Experience in Years 10/11/12, in any of the three Term breaks, or negotiated at alternate times throughout the year. Redlynch State College encourages all Senior Students to participate in Work Experience. 

It is invaluable for students to investigate and sample an area of work that they may have an interest in for the future. 

For those students in Year 10 the process also assists parents and students with subject selections in Years 11 & 12. 

Subject selections are made during Term 3, so to gain the most advantage from Work Experience, it is preferable that students complete Work Experience in the school holidays where possible.



Hard-copies of the above form can be collected from & returned when complete, to Ms Meyer or Mr Crosby

Once completed this form provides Public Liability Insurance which covers students for personal accident insurance whilst on work experience. 

Students wanting work experience in construction, landscaping, and similar industries, will also require a Workplace Health & Safety Card (White Card). 
This training can be completed through various providers, such as TAFE & must be completed Face to Face. It cannot be done online.

No student will be placed in these industries without a White Card.​

If you require any additional information in relation to Work Experience please email Mr Forgie - lforg2@eq.edu.au or Transition Pathways Officer Rebecca Meyer​
