Serena’s story – my experience interning from home

"I loved seeing that these people, much like myself, were gaining confidence and workplace experiences in leading Australian organisations."

 "Seeing how open big, well-known organisations were to working with people like me, makes me feel more comfortable sharing my disability when applying for jobs in the future." Read about Serena's Stepping Into experience working from home during Winter 2020.

Engaging University Students with Australian Network on Disability Programs

 University services are one of the best ways of engaging students with AND programs.

 The most common ways students find out about AND programs is through Disability and Careers services.

 We spoke to staff from some of the universities that have the most successful engagement with the programs  to find out the best ways of promoting Stepping Into to students - and what AND can do to help! 

 Find out how AND and universities can work together to promote these great opportunities to eligible students here.
