Involvement with C2C Program

We provide advice to the education system, individual schools and individual students on manufacturing, engineering, science and technology. We provide training to teachers on the concepts of lean manufacturing - critical for Australia to be competitive in a global business. Many students have participated in tours of our assembly plant.

Students who participate in the C2C program and continue with developing their mathematics, science and technology education are well prepared to move into our dynamic industry.
Whatever entry point you take, there are countless opportunities to progress through a challenging career in the automotive industry - both technical careers as well as into management and leadership roles.
