The job market in 2025 is evolving fast and not just in tech. New industries are emerging, traditional roles are transforming, and skill sets that were once considered niche are now in high demand.
At Australian College, we prepare students for the real world, not just the one that existed yesterday, but the one that’s being shaped today. If you’re rethinking your career direction, here are some surprisingly exciting paths you might not have considered… yet.
- Digital Wellness Coach
As screen time surges, so does the need to help people manage it. Digital wellness coaches support clients in balancing tech use with mental wellbeing—blending psychology, communication, and lifestyle coaching.
Pathway: Diploma of Health and Wellbeing
- Education Support Specialist (Inclusive Learning)
More schools are hiring trained aides to work alongside teachers, especially in special needs, EAL (English as an Additional Language), and literacy support. It’s meaningful, people-focused work with strong growth.

Modern companies invest in their people—and that means in-house wellbeing professionals. From organising workshops to monitoring burnout risk, this role blends HR, psychology, and leadership.
