Now that we’ve sold you on why Perth is a pretty great place to work and study, it’s time to really start arming yourself with the best information on how to go about it.

Enter the StudyPerth International Education & Careers Expo – a chance for students from Perth, interstate or overseas to really examine their options and enhance their future opportunities with a WA-based education.

The expo – happening in-person and online for free – will provide students with the chance to meet Perth’s best educators and accommodation providers; engage with WA employers; be inspired by industry professionals; gain experience through workshops, and heaps more.

If this sounds of interest to you, register here now.

It’s taking place over two days on Friday 9 and Saturday 10 October from 10am-3pm at the Perth Convention & Exhibition Centre or online, where you will have access to institution information, be able to organise catch-ups with their representatives and watch filmed sessions.
