The Advanced Manufacturing Gateway to Industry Schools project (GISP_AM) encourages sustainable partnerships between industry, government and community to build Queensland's manufacturing and engineering workforce for the future.

Participating schools

Gateway to Industry teachers and students engage with industry from both trade and professional backgrounds. The GISP_AM provides industry insights, evidence and connections to the advancing manufacturing industries.

A range of experiences are offered to broaden science, technology, engineering, art and mathematics (STEAM) knowledge and develop best practice models of pipelining talent to advanced manufacturing industries, including:

  • aerospace and defence
  • digital and print media
  • construction
  • textiles, leather, clothing and footwear
  • mining equipment, technology and services
  • transport (vehicle, marine, rail)
  • resources and renewable energy
  • biomedical and biotechnology
  • agriculture (including precision agriculture)
  • food and beverage processing

  • Inspire programs (Prep – year 6)
  • Interest programs (years 7–8)
  • Involve programs (years 9–10)
  • Activate programs (years 11–12)
  • Gateway Days (teacher STEAM PD and currency in industry).
