Expected outcomes and deliverables

Whether you are wanting a brief turnaround or a large scale contribution, project outcomes could be small or large depending on requirements. Our students have substantial hours to contribute to your project outcomes. We can be creative in our project planning to meet a variety of objectives, with milestones in place to ensure timely delivery.

Our students are in their final year of a Youth Work bachelors degree. They have a mature and responsible approach, are good meeting deadlines, are social media savvy and have an excellent understanding of youth and their needs. Most are in their early 20s and have a wide range of direct experiences and a passion to make a difference for youth in the areas mentioned above.

We are based in Melbourne, Australia and are keen to work with you online either synchronously or asynchronously.
