Graduates

Our Graduate Program gives you opportunities to make a difference in the lives of South Australians, their families and communities.

• a 2-year graduate contract, with an initial 12-month structured calendar of induction, professional development and networking
• an option to conduct the first 12 months within 2 areas of the department (6 months each)
• a corporate or allied health stream with tailored skills development relevant to your degree and career pathway.

Graduate placements are across South Australia, both in Adelaide and regional locations.
