A Genuine Collaboration Between Education, Industry & Government

We are working on building a truly collaborative environment—bringing together educators, industry, government and community to create meaningful outcomes that will drive our region forward and inspire others to join

Time to Collaborate

As the Central Coast looks to the future, improving how we work together is essential to building an engaged community and industries that will create jobs and career opportunities for everyone.

An active and connected education-industry-government ecosystem—one that is collaborating and learning together—will not only be better prepared to tackle the challenges and opportunities ahead but will also be better positioned to shape a future Central Coast that everyone feels connected to and can thrive in.

Pilot Collaborators

The Central Coast Education Networks Pilot Collaborators are a committed group of local education, business, and industry leaders who are taking a lead role in developing the processes and programs that will underpin the success of the Central Coast Education Networks. We greatly appreciate their support and commitment in helping to establish and grow an important network, ensuring a strong foundation for the future of the Central Coast.

Education Collaborators

The local Central Coast pre-tertiary education sector, a key stakeholder in Education Networks, plays an essential role in ensuring that the programs and resources delivered are relevant in the classroom and impactful for both teachers and students.
