On 16 August 2013 AIEF-BHP Billiton Tertiary Scholarship holders Jayde, Timothy and Balin took part in the BHP Billiton Tertiary Scholars Vacation Work Session.
The tertiary scholars travelled to BHP Billiton in Perth for the program that focused on professional development and work readiness. They then undertook career development and team building exercises and participated in a session that focused on interview and resume preparation. The session was valuable for the tertiary scholars, who gained a greater understanding of employment and career development and were able to further develop their skill sets.
