Student wellbeing and career resilience in a rapidly changing world: Teachers and career practitioners webinar
Tuesday, 22 June 2021, 4 pm AEST
Young people face a future working life which will be marked by constant change. The economic impacts of COVID-19 have caused labour market disruption and job losses for many young people who are over-represented in hard-hit industries such as tourism, hospitality, and arts and culture. Many students have missed important milestones and struggled with the isolation imposed by lockdowns.
In this webinar, Dr Lyn O'Grady, a psychologist who specialises in the mental health and wellbeing of children and young people, will explore the potential impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on student emotional and psychological wellbeing which may create obstacles for students facing complex career decisions and transitions. Lyn will offer practical advice, strategies and resources for teachers and career practitioners supporting students in extraordinary times of change.
