People are key to the ongoing protection of our natural environments and bringing the bush back to good health. Our Seeding the Future Program offers aspiring conservationists pathways to learn and hone best-practice skills and approaches.
We offer various entry points into environmental careers and our participants are provided with mentoring and skill development in office- and field-based roles, both in science and conservation management, and broader business functions.
By the end of their programs participants are better equipped for a meaningful career in the conservation sector.
There are three parts to the program:
Also known as Workplace Integrated Learning (WIL), opportunities are offered throughout the year to support students to complete course requirements in a real-world environment.

On average we offer 10 paid internships each year through the support of various generous individuals and philanthropic trusts that are passionate about supporting young people with employment pathways. Internships are available across all disciplines and are offered as either 3 months full-time or 6 months part-time. They’re advertised in February and May.
We can’t sponsor visa applications for paid internships.
Paid internships offer those who’ve recently graduated, the chance to build solid paid experience – something that’s been identified as a barrier for many first-time job seekers.
