High school students
Commission staff regularly visit VCE Legal Studies classes to talk about the work of the Commission. We produce a range of publications for students that can be ordered free from the Commission or downloaded from this website.
Year 12 VCE Legal Studies students study the law reform process in Unit 3, 'Law-Making'. If you would like a staff member to speak at your school please contact the Commission.
Tertiary students
Commission staff have in the past spoken to law, criminology, social work and legal studies students at universities around Melbourne. If you would like a staff member to speak to your class or student group please contact the Commission.
Internships for tertiary students at all levels are available at the Commission through the Law Foundation.
