Performance Education

We are Australia's #1 Professional Year provider. Fast-track your IT & Accounting Career with our PY

Performance Education is on a mission to revolutionise graduate employability in Australia, equipping our students with the tools for success through training and quality industry networks. Our mission started over 17 years ago – as top industry recruiters, we saw graduates struggling to enter the competitive job market. Although they were equipped with fresh technical knowledge, ideas and enthusi

asm, graduates were hindered by a lack of workplace skills and experience. At PE, we believe that every graduate should have the opportunity and skills to pursue the career of their choice. Our Professional Year programs combine our expertise in recruitment, training and professional services to give graduates the skills and qualities that employers look for in prospective candidates. We work with over 11,000 Host Employers who are passionate about improving employability for the next generation, giving our graduates the real-world experience they need to thrive. We are Australia’s largest Professional Year provider, with campuses across 4 cities and classes running 7 days a week. We’ve changed the lives and improved the employability of over 35,000 graduates – and we’re still going strong. In our first 12 years we were featured in the BRW Fast Starters list twice and have since grown to become recognised as an industry leader, delivering outstanding employment outcomes to thousands of graduates across Australia.

NPS stands for Net Promoter Score. It measures one thing: would you recommend this to someone you care about?

A score above 50 is considered excellent in any industry. Airlines, banks, and software companies spend millions chasing it. PE has held it consistently across every measured period, not because of a good quarter, but because of what happens in the classroom and on placement, year after year.

Behind that number are 40,000+ graduates who went through the program and came out the other side with Australian work experience, real skills, and in many cases, a job offer from their host company.

That is what a score above 50 actually means.

Many interns spend their first week trying not to get in anyone's way. That is the wrong instinct.

The people who get noticed early are not the loudest ones. They are the ones who pay attention to how things actually work, who makes decisions, how the team communicates, what problems keep coming up in meetings.

Here is what that looks like in practice.

On day one, a nervous intern sits quietly, waits to be told what to do, and leaves at 5pm sharp.

On day one, a smart intern introduces themselves to three people they were not assigned to meet, asks their manager "what does a good week look like for you?", and stays ten minutes late to finish something cleanly.

Same first day. Very different first impression.

Listen more than you speak. Finish everything you are given before asking for more. And remember, your host company has hosted many interns before. They know the difference.

Sue came into the Professional Year program with skills. She is leaving with the confidence to use them.

More assured in the room. Clearer when she speaks. Better at navigating an Australian workplace. She credits her trainer and the environment they created, professional, supportive, and genuinely invested in her growth.

That is not luck. It is what we build for, every intake, every campus.

This is what 20 years of doing one thing well looks like.

40,000+ graduates. Thousands of stories like this one. We don't take that lightly.

Most LinkedIn summaries sound like a cover letter nobody asked for. Recruiters skim. If the first line does not stop them, nothing else matters.

Here is the difference in practice.

Forgettable:
"Recent IT graduate passionate about cybersecurity and eager to contribute to a dynamic team in Australia."

Memorable:
"I found a misconfigured AWS bucket during a uni assignment that would have exposed 4,000 customer records. Seeking a junior security analyst role in Sydney."

Same person. One gets ignored. One gets a message.

Lead with something real. A problem you caught. A system you built. A number that means something. Recruiters see hundreds of summaries a week. Give them a reason to click yours.

PE students get LinkedIn coaching built into the program. Visit https://www.performance.edu.au/professional-year to find out more.

Most providers offer the same ACS-accredited program. The curriculum is standardised. So the question is not which program, it is who delivers it and what happens around it.

Here is where PE is different. Our trainers are industry professionals, not academics. The people teaching you have worked in Australian companies. They know how hiring managers think, what technical skills actually get tested on the job, and how to help you present yourself in a way that lands interviews.

When it comes to internship placement, we run daily matching meetings. Not weekly. Not when someone gets around to it. Every day, our team is actively working to connect students with the right host company for their background and goals. We have built a network of 11,000+ host companies over 20 years, and 40% of interns receive a direct job offer from their host at the end of the program.

We are also the only Professional Year provider that publishes independently verified graduate outcomes through our Leading Indicators Survey. We do not ask you to take our word for it. The data is there.

Everything else; eLearning platform, career counselling, resume coaching, LinkedIn optimisation, mock interviews, networking events — is included. No extras. No surprises.

40,000 graduates do not happen by accident.

They happen because the program works. Because the training is built for the Australian workplace. Because the internships are real. And because the people who went through it keep telling others to do the same.

You would be joining the largest Professional Year community in Australia.
