EmployAbility Program
The webinar cannot cover everything we need to consider in successfully searching for and securing a job. So I recommend EmployAbility’s program, both developed and delivered by people living with disabilities. The free and comprehensive program includes the following:
- Helping participants to identify transferable skills and new opportunities.
- Understand and overcome barriers.
- Build confidence.
- Create a resume, cover letter.
- Job search support.
- Interview support.
Moreover, the program offers opportunities for participants to connect with inclusive employers or employer partners.
We welcome your participation in the program and are here to address any questions you may have. Please feel free to get in touch with our EmployAbility team by completing the contact form or sending an email to employability@scia.org.au.
By the way, Dominic recently hosted another informative webinar that provided valuable insights and resources for addressing disability discrimination in the workplace.
