Community Engagement
Supporting Our Region

A key objective of the Ballarat Tech School is to promote holistic community engagement by increasing the awareness of, and active participation in STEM opportunities for young people.

Along with creating shared student and carer opportunities around structured program offerings, we also encourage community events that increase knowledge and understanding of STEM, the Tech School and the importance of both to the future prosperity of our community.
