DSWA Ready for Work Program
In early January 2026, our DSWA employment coordinator, Lara, will run a 5-week Ready for Work program.
This program helps our members learn the skills and knowledge they need to start working. It is great for:
- School leavers who want to start work in 2026
- Members who are not sure how to begin looking for a job
The Ready for Work program covers many topics, including:
- Writing a resume
- Making a video resume
- Writing a cover letter
- How to dress for different jobs
- How to behave at work
- Exploring different types of jobs and industries
- Self-management and building confidence
If you or someone you care for would like to start their work journey, please register at https://www.trybooking.com/events/landing/1515991
If the January dates do not work for you, the Ready for Work program will also run again at the end of February.
