Starting in August 2022, East Gippsland Learn Locals in conjunction with Heyfield Community Resource Centre ran the training program Kick Start Your Career. We asked the students for their feedback on the course, this presentation contains some of what they had to say.

This course has been co-designed with local businesses in Heyfield and the Heyfield Community Resource Centre. It prepares job seekers for a range of entry level roles including administration, hospitality, retail, agriculture, trades, health and more at various locations in and around Heyfield.

Job seekers will meet a range of business leaders from the Heyfield region who are actively seeking new employees. Learners will be supported to improve their employability skills, with a focus on communication, problem-solving, workplace expectations and job applications.

The success of this course has led to the development of other Ready for Work courses, visit us at the Heyfield Community Resource Centre or check our website for more information.
