Alana Kilmartin, author and founder of Unserious Careers, has worked with students at more than 300 high schools across Australia and New Zealand to help them explore options after leaving high school. This December, she's bringing her Seriously Ready National Tour to Darwin, with an event hosted in partnership with Charles Darwin University.
The half-day session is designed for 2026 Year 12 students with a combination of interactive presentations and workshop-style activities. You’ll have the opportunity to reflect, brainstorm and put an action plan in place for your own career – and you might even have some fun along the way.
Whether you’re planning to go to uni or TAFE, enter the workforce, start a trade, take a gap year or follow another path, this session is designed to help you feel more prepared and excited about what comes next.
