SCHOOL LEAVERS EMPLOYMENT SUPPORTS

The transition from school to employment can be an exciting yet daunting change and sometimes it can be a process to navigate the different pathways and supports that are available to help build your confidence and capacity.
Our School Leaver Employment Supports (SLES) helps to build your capacity to prepare you for work. Our supports are focused on your goals and are tailored to your needs. We help to ascertain your aspirations, skills, abilities, interests, and personal and family circumstances to find jobs that are right for you.
