The Rural Health Pathways Showcase is open to students in Yrs 9-12 interested in a career in allied health, medicine, nursing, midwifery, pharmacy, paramedicine, Aboriginal health and more.
Discover your path in health from wherever you're from to wherever you're going.
Careers advisers, teachers, students and parents have the opportunity to:
- Speak with representatives from universities, vocational education and training providers, peak bodies and health employers about study pathways and career opportunities.
- Connect one-on-one with and be inspired by health students, recent graduates and health professionals about their education and career journeys.
- Participate in hands-on activities offering an immersive "day-in-the-life" perspective of various health careers.
The 2026 Rural Pathways Showcase event will take place on 3 September at the ICC, Darling Harbour. There are two sessions available: 9.30am - 2.00pm and 4.00pm - 7.30pm.
The inaugural Rural Health Pathways Showcase was hosted by Rural Doctors Network at Sydney's International Convention Centre in 2025. Read more below:
