Careers professionals will flock to Rotorua tomorrow for the annual Careers and Transition Education Association conference.
The association, more commonly known as CATE, is a 600-member association with a focus on career education for youth and their transition from school into employment, training and further education.
The majority of its members are school careers advisers, transition teachers and Gateway and youth apprenticeship co-ordinators.
More than 500 professionals will attend the association's annual conference tomorrow, which will be held at the Energy Events Centre over three days.
It's the fourth time the conference has been held in Rotorua and Lynn Gillespie, from Career Network in Rotorua, said it was an opportunity for professional development for those who worked in the careers sector.
