Work Experience Programs
We’ve observed a gap between academic learning and workplace preparedness. We believe in helping people learn work readiness skills that will enhance their employability and increase job satisfaction amongst employers.
The gap between unemployability and work success lies in the integration of psychological, mental, and technical capabilities that are pivotal to a successful work readiness and success. The readiness program is purposed to prepare individuals with different needs, this also includes people with neurodiverse conditions, where our approach has a 3-tier approach:
Psychological Readiness
Starting a new job can be daunting and often debilitating if an individual is not psychologically ready. It is for this reason that we have established partnerships with health professionals, who bring wealth of experience in the application of proven methodologies towards getting individuals job ready.
Interpersonal Readiness
We all come from different cultural and social backgrounds – these backgrounds hugely contribute to our interpersonal skills. in the workplace, where these dynamic backgrounds congregate, it can often result in conflict, lack of camaraderie among team, which could impact on productivity. Our readiness program is aimed at empowering individuals to gain the most important interpersonal skills necessary in the workplace. The following forms part of the readiness program:

Technical skills are informed by the role to be assumed and our readiness program customizes the approach to address role-specific requirements. The following are some of the roles we focus on:
