About Us

MWLP is a not-for-profit organisation, focused on engaging a community of stakeholders to support youth in their personal and professional career development.

MWLP was established in 1995 to service the Macarthur region of South-West Sydney. In 2016, we expanded our services to cover the Canterbury-Bankstown and Inner South-West areas.

What do we do?

MWLP assists young people to make the successful transition from school to work. We do this by connecting the incredibly important space between schools and the wider world, including business, industry, training organisations, parents & families, three tiers of Government and the broader community.

Our work focuses on preparing young people for the world of work, nurturing aspiration, career management and entrepreneurialism, whilst simultaneously addressing the ongoing needs of business.
