The Victorian Government has launched its Transport and Logistics Interactive Careers website designed to outline the various roles within the industry.

The website, aimed at attracting young people to alleviate skills shortages, is complemented by the government-sponsored interactive CD-ROM, which is currently in use across Victoria, NSW and Queensland.
