The Careers Advisers Association of NSW & ACT Incorporated ABN 58 877 417 536 ("CAA") was officially established on 30 June 1975. A group of Careers Advisers got together for a State-wide Conference in December 1974 and decided to establish a professional body for Careers Advisers. A working group was formed, and a Constitution was finalised and presented to the group on 28 June 1975, with incorporation following a couple of days later. The person instrumental to this process is Margaret Gambley, who was a founding member and long-standing Committee Member. Margaret is a life member of CAA and attends the Annual Conference every year to present an award in her name. CAA represents Career Education and Careers Advisers in Government, Catholic and Independent Schools in NSW and ACT, as well as other Career Development Practitioners working in associated fields. CAA promotes career education as a central and vital part of schooling and supports the work of Careers Advisers in assisting young people in making decisions about work, study and training. We are a member of the Career Industry Council of Australia (CICA).
