 At the University of Newcast, we prepare our graduates to meet the challenges and opportunities of their future. We call this preparing life ready graduates. Our looking ahead strategic plan puts work integrated learning as a centrepiece. This is a key to the successful preparation of all our students becoming life ready graduates. Our industry and community partners play a really key role because they help us train and educate our students with those really important workplace skills which make them employable and ready for life. The hands-on learning which industry and community partners provide gives our students those very important skills, those skills of applying what they learnt in the classroom which are so important for employability and life ready graduates. As a university community it's really important that we celebrate our inaugural Employability Excellence Awards Achievers. These awards recognise the wonderful work that our staff and students do in creating more employable graduates. Congratulations to each of our industry partners and our students who are recognising the wonderful work we do together through work integrated learning, the extracurricular activities, volunteering, working together in paid internships, entrepreneurial activities. They bring us all together for the most amazing educational experience. These partnerships give students an edge so that when they're looking for employment they are ready for work. They also give our industry partners an edge because what that means is they see students that can they can have as future employees knowing that they have the skills that they want. Thank you to all our partners for contributing to the professional preparation of our graduates and to growing and strengthening our regions.
