It can support you to:
Do what you already love as well as discover something new?
Grow confidence in a work environment
Develop employment skills
Develop new networks and open up new opportunities.
What skills will I learn?
There’s a huge range of skills you can learn to get you job ready. These include:
Communicating at work
Understanding what your employer needs from you

Working in a team
Health and safety
Travel Independence
Dressing for the workplace

Will I get hands-on work experience?
Yes! Work experience, tours and tasters are a key part of our SLES program.
When you’re looking for the job you love it can be hard.
