Resources Technology Showcase – 4 April 2023

Resources Technology Showcase

On Tuesday 4 April, Years 9-11 students attended the Resources Technology Showcase, a window into careers of the future.  The showcase was held at the Perth Convention and Exhibition Centre (PCEC).  Students were encouraged to immerse themselves in technology which will be critical to the jobs/careers they take after they leave school.  Students were able to ask questions direct to senior business leaders about the challenges and successes in the resource, defence technologies and space industries.

This excursion supported the WA Curriculum: Science, Technologies, and HASS, with interactive displays of world‑class robotics, artificial intelligence, virtual reality, autonomous vehicles and remote operations centres.  Students and teachers experienced a behind-the-scenes look at the technology which is transforming the resource, defence and space industries, and shaping the jobs of tomorrow.
