The College has a whole school approach to career education. In year 8 students research their future in Year 9 we build on to this information in Year 10 all students undertake either Certificate 1 in Work education or Certificate 1 in Work Readiness and our seniors undertake Certificate 11 in Workplace practices. In 2008 the College became an RTO for Certificate 1 in Work Education certificate 11 in Workplace Practices and Certificate 1 in Work Readiness. This has been very beneficial to over 80 students in Years 10 and 12 who have gained one of these certificates and now have 2 or 4 points banked in their learning accounts to contribute towards their Queensland Certificate of Education. In recent years our Year 10 and 12 students have been involved in: * Certificate 11 in Horticulture* Certificate 111 in Information Technology* Certificate 11 in General Construction* Certificate 11 in Retail* Certificate 1 and 11 in Hospitality Operations* Certificate 111 in Health Services Assistance* Certificate 111 in Computer Aided Drafting* Certificate 11 in Automotive* Certificate 11 in Engineering* Certificate 11 in Information Technology* Certificate 11 in Screen* Certificate 11 in Community Recreation
