17 Apr 2025

Plumpton welcomed Matt Chilko - Senior Account Director, Government Partnerships, Talent connection, Learning Solutions, Data & Insights @ LinkedIn to work with our Futures Centre, myself and senior students who are currently planning their post school destinations using our Career Path Planning Framework. Plumpton supports and encourages all students in Year 11 and 12 to develop a LinkedIn profile as preparation for their post school destinations.

Our school has developed a partnership with LinkedIn over the past 2 years to support our school and students’ futures. This learning centred around the LinkedIn Insights package. Insights is a talent intelligence platform that helps you make informed decisions with real-time insights from the world’s largest professional network with over 1.2 billion members.

For our students Insights it is enabling them to understand what skills they need to develop to gain employment beyond school, universities to attend for specific qualifications and what employers are hiring from different universities for specific qualifications whether that be Engineering, Law, Finance, Construction, Business etc… This is now forming part of our Career Path Planning Framework process. Insights is the next step for our students that compliments the work our students are engaged in through completing various modules of LinkedIn Learning. Our School Captain Lochlan and Vice-Captain Caiden shared their journey and the benefits they are seeing having engaged with LinkedIn and developed a LinkedIn profile to support their futures.

Thank you to Matt, LinkedIn and Gemma from our Futures Centre for providing access to such valuable opportunities for our students that is allowing us to maintain the same rate of change in our school as that in the world beyond school.
