Registered migration agents may be interested to hear that Professional Year (PY) is a key step in the journey to an agent's client becoming a permanent resident in Australia.

The Professional Year program is a structured system which provides formal learning and workplace experience to give participants the skills to thrive in the professional realm.

With their 100 per cent rate of success when it comes to internship placements, roughly 33 per cent of interns are offered continued employment once internships conclude.

Showing how highly regarded the Professional Year program is, 94 per cent of people are employed within six months of graduation. Not only does the scheme provide participants with the skills for employment, but the preparation for future employment. As such, application letters, resume formats and interview techniques are all addressed to give them the best chance of success.

Professional Year also boasts the record of 100 placements in internships in an Australian host company.

Students are able to have one-on-one time with the performance careers team, meaning that they receive personalised advice on how to proceed with their career path.

The facility is also dedicated to flexibility in terms of the workload and payment plans. Students are able to modify their workload to suit their schedule and they are also able to pay their fees in a number of ways, whether it be ten monthly payments or one lump sum.

The Sydney campus is located at 333 Kent street, while the Melbourne facility is found at Flinders lane in the heart of the CBD.
