Welcome to the Skill Up Program
The Skill Up Program continues to support young people aged 12 to 24 to build practical skills, gain valuable certifications and feel more confident taking the next step into the workforce.
This free initiative is designed for young people who are preparing for their first job, looking to strengthen their resume or wanting to expand their qualifications.
Courses may include opportunities such as White Card training, First Aid certification and Responsible Service of Alcohol training, providing practical, career-building skills for young people across the community.
Stay tuned for upcoming course details and registration information.
