What our people say

After working as a Business Studies and Student Welfare Teacher, I was thrilled to join SEDA’s Sport & Business Program as I am a huge believer in practical education that has job relevance. I often find that deeper learning occurs when students can see the application of concepts in real life and it has been fantastic to work with a sporting partner like Sydney FC to deliver an immersive and practical program to students.”

“I have a broad love of sport and the opportunity to work closely with Melbourne Victory and other sporting partners was a real drawcard for me. After teaching years 11 and 12 with SEDA Colleges I was excited to make the transition to the Sport & Business Program where I could work with young adults and guide them on their individual journeys” Paul Goldsmith Teacher - Melbourne Victory Sport & Business Program

As a teacher who loves playing sport and being outdoors, I was naturally drawn to SEDA. It provides a unique opportunity to work with adult students in an elite sporting environment, where they gain first-hand industry experience to pursue careers that they are passionate about. The structure of the program means I play more of a mentoring role and its very rewarding building relationships with students over the duration of the program and supporting them through challenges as they pursue their dreams.”
