SUMMARY
Success happens when our understanding of the ‘what’, ‘when’ and ‘why’ of Workforce Australia Services operational policy comes together with the ‘how’ – the skills and knowledge we need to build professional relationships based on trust and mutual respect with our participants and employers. We know that many of our participants are continually working through day to day challenges, so how do we work with them to maximise their chances of gaining meaningful employment? How do we work with employers to build opportunities for our people?
Join NESA’s Senior Policy Advisor, Damien Opolski, for a highly engaging, highly interactive and often challenging online workshop as we look at Workforce Australia Services – Policy and Practice. At this 5 consecutive part online workshop, we’ll explore the detail of the policy settings – from eligibility to exits and everything in between. Along the way we’ll ‘meet’ some very interesting participants and employers!
People completing this workshop will receive their first year of ESI membership FREE OF CHARGE!
