Do you want a career working alongside people? Are you curious about what you learn in a Bachelor of Social Services?

This Taster Day is focused on the Health and Wellbeing specialty within the Bachelor of Social Services.

This programme will challenge you to reflect on your own assumptions, engage with diverse perspectives, and develop the skills needed to work ethically and respectfully alongside people from all walks of life.

If that sounds like the kind of learning journey you’re looking for, join us at our Taster Day to discover whether a career in social services could be the right fit for you.

You’ll get an interactive session to learn more about the skills you’ll learn and discover the variety of career possibilities. You’ll meet the lecturers you’ll be learning from and have a chance to ask questions.
