InternMatch is the delivery partner of the Victorian State Government’s Digital Jobs Program
Technology continues to revolutionise the way we live and work. For businesses to thrive in a digital world, we need more people with digital skills for digital jobs.
The Victorian Government’s Digital Jobs program aims to build the state’s digital workforce by training and up-skilling mid-career Victorians so they can transition into digital careers.
The $64 million investment will support up to 5,000 Victorians, over three years, to re-skill and change careers. The participants will complete 12-weeks of industry-backed training followed by a placement in a digital role.
To support participants throughout their journey, we are looking for subject matter expert mentors.
As a Digital Jobs Program mentor, you will have the opportunity to give back while developing your own leadership skills. You’ll learn from and gain fresh perspectives from new talent, while supporting an important national program.
