Progression in to employment
The ultimate goal of our Supported Internships is to help you find work. Throughout your time with us, our managers and job coaches will support you to develop your skills, knowledge and experience giving you an increase in your own confidence and capabilities. Our team will connect you with local employers and facilitate visits, trials and selection to help you transition into employment. If you require further support to gain a job and stay in work, we can create paid “Supported Employment” opportunities that provide you with a safety net and help you with life as well as work.
