Summary
In a performance-driven sector, it’s important that your staff understand jobactive Outcomes. Outcomes are what we strive for. Successful Outcomes can change the lives of our job seekers, and it’s Outcomes that, to a large extent, drive our business. But it’s a complex topic. An understanding of jobactive Outcomes requires an understanding of how many different things work together – how a job seeker’s circumstances determine their outcome requirements, and how a job seeker’s subsequent achievements are supported with evidence. An understanding of jobactive Outcomes also requires an understanding of all the things that can happen as a job seeker tracks towards an Outcome: variations in earnings and hours worked, breaks in employment, discrepancies between DHS data and the evidence you hold… and much more.
Our one-day Understanding jobactive Outcomes workshop builds a core understanding of Outcomes before moving into some of the more complex areas around 4, 12 and 26 Week Employment Outcomes. As well as learning the theory you’ll be working through plenty of practical exercises – so bring calculators
