PEXA (Property Exchange Australia)
PEXA Group Limited, operator of the world’s first digital property exchange platform, collaborates with Victoria University (VU) to create opportunities that will support the digital talent of tomorrow.
Together, we provide VU students with access to graduate and internship programs, and opportunities to solve real-life business problems through capstone projects.
About our collaboration
PEXA (Property Exchange Australia) is Australia’s online property exchange network. It assists members – such as lawyers, conveyancers and financial institutions – to lodge documents with Land Registries and complete financial settlements electronically.
Established in 2023, the Major Alliance between VU and PEXA helps our students to graduate job-ready, with digital skills for their future careers. In turn, the partnership helps PEXA to grow sustainable talent pathways and support the learning and development of PEXA staff.
Benefits and positive results from this partnership include the following:
- Through the PEXA Graduate Program and internship agreement, two VU graduates have been employed by PEXA and four students have completed PEXA internships.
- 'Capstone projects' provide opportunities for students to research a real-world professional scenario at PEXA.
- PEXA has an office located at the VU City Campus for their PEXA Academy operations.
- In 2023, PEXA contributed $10,000 towards technology-focused, merit-based student awards and VU’s student support initiatives.
- PEXA regularly contributes to VU academic and educational activities through guest lectures and by having two PEXA staff appointed to the Bachelor of IT Industry Advisory Board in 2023.
- PEXA also contributes to staff and student leadership courses, and collaborates with VU on events such as Open Day, O-Fest, tree planting, and staff wellness days.
- VU supports PEXA to deliver internal learning and development programs for employees.
