Courses are designed to equip students with the necessary values, skills and attitudes to find and retain employment. Much emphasis is placed on assisting our students to become self-sufficient in their search for employment and ultimately become employees with a high level of work ethics.
Job-shadow opportunities
- host 1 or more students on a supervised 3 day job-shadow assignment giving them exposure to a varied business environment
See here for some feedback received from the candidates who participated in job shadows with some of our partners.
