This October marked another successful delivery of the ACT Defence Work Experience Program. The program was held at the Australian Defence Force Academy (ADFA) in Canberra and is now in its fourth year.

DWEP continues to provide participants with exposure to an ADF Career, specifically Officer entry.
 
As part of the schedule of activities during the program, on 23 October 2019 participants and staff from the Defence Work Experience Program visited the Australian Defence Force Academy in Canberra. The visit included a tour of UNSW and gave the students a brief insight into what it would be like to be a student at ADFA.
