WIN Personal Development Programme


Program Overview

The WIN Personal Development Program is designed specifically for women who haven’t worked for a period of time.

This program helps women take the first step in gaining confidence in a supportive environment before entering further education, prevocational training or employment.

Program Objective

The WIN Program increases self esteem and confidence in order to take the first step towards the long-term goal of paid employment.

The course is very practical and enjoyable. The trainer uses a creative approach with little written work.

During training, women go out for coffee, learn more about make up, nail maintenance and hairstyles, discover new recipes to taste test and find clothing styles which suit them. Presentations from other local providers occur to widen knowledge about training options, Centrelink assistance, Job Networks, women’s health and legal services.

The course helps to develop assertiveness, cultivate positive thoughts, and set life goals.

All programs are conducted during school hours, (10am to 2.30pm) for ten days. Courses cater for 12 to 15 women.

Outcomes

The WIN Personal Development Program is the first step to help women gain confidence, knowledge and empowerment to move into training and employment.

All women who commence the WIN Program complete it, as they find it relevant and have so much fun.

After completing this program, women have enrolled in community college courses, undertaken formal training and education, commenced a government funded program or gained employment.
