Study Success for Life Goals
Knowledge of software and workplace procedures are a good base to have when applying for jobs but they don’t help you do a great job when working with other employees, contractors, clients and suppliers.
To demonstrate your experience in working with people these skills are very important:
- Listening and Communications Skills
- Organising Meetings
- Time Management Skills
- Customer Service
- Working With Difficult People
- Working as Part of a Team
- Setting and Achieving Goals
Some of these tasks are very hard to master if you are not used to it or are working in a job you don’t like. This new training program includes videos and a downloadable book that is yours to keep.
Technical Skills for Job Seekers ($99 short courses)
There are certain tasks that every business business needs to perform to manage their business, and they include:
- Using Microsoft Office (Documents, Spreadsheets and to a lesser extent PowerPoint for presentations and graphic design)
- Accounting skills using MYOB, Xero and QuickBooks Online (quoting, invoicing, payments, reporting and being compliant with the ATO)
- Digital Marketing & Online Sales and Support
To help everyone affected by Covid-19 we have a number of Certificate Courses for $99 that will get you up-to-speed using these programs from your own home.
Who are Our Mentors & Tutors?
Our mentors are people who have decided that they want to find work for themselves, on their own terms, and have gone on to create successful businesses, or to work successfully as well-paid contractors. In this way, they have already done the work and are ready to help you.
They know it can be difficult to know where to start, and that you don’t know what you don’t know — they’ve done the hard yards already and are there to give you a helping hand. One that isn’t just theoretical, either, but practical and genuinely helpful.
Who is this program For?
The Career Academy JobSeeker Training Program is designed for those people who have been out of the workforce for several years, perhaps while caring for growing children, or elderly or sick relatives.
This can be a very trying time as you search for meaning in the workplace after a long time away and involves decisions about what YOU want, as well as what is available in the job market, and within the hours enabling you to continue to meet current commitments.
If you are keen to explore opportunities for starting your own business and invoicing your own clients for the work you do, then explore the StartUp Academy options.
The Career Academy JobSeeker Training Program provides a thorough guide that will help you gain clarity, confidence and find employment again — either in the workforce, working for someone else, or for yourself.
