Introducing "Pathways to Success": The doer Academy.

​

Doer is thrilled to present Pathways to Success, a comprehensive work ready program designed to empower Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people, and other disadvantaged young Australians, and equip them with the skills and resources necessary to thrive in the workforce. We firmly believe that every young person should have access to opportunities that pave the way for a fulfilling career and economic independence.

​

Program Overview

​

Skills Development:
Pathways to Success focuses on building a strong foundation of employable skills. Through workshops, training sessions, and practical hands-on experiences, participants gain essential skills such as communication, teamwork, problem-solving, time management, and professional etiquette. We tailor our programs to meet the specific needs of Aboriginal youth, ensuring cultural sensitivity and relevance.

​

Industry Exposure:
We facilitate opportunities for participants to explore various local industries and gain first-hand knowledge of potential career paths. Through site visits, industry guest speakers, and networking events, young individuals can engage with professionals, learn about different job roles, and make informed decisions about their future career aspirations. Our aim is to broaden their horizons and inspire them to pursue diverse and fulfilling careers.

​

Mentoring and Guidance:
We pair participants with experienced mentors who provide guidance, support, and encouragement throughout their journey. Mentors serve as role models, sharing their expertise, offering advice, and helping participants navigate the challenges of transitioning into the workforce. We ensure that mentors are culturally sensitive and committed to fostering the personal and professional growth of the young individuals they mentor.

 

Job Readiness:
Preparing youth for the job market is a key focus of our program. We offer assistance in resume writing, interview skills, job search strategies, and workplace etiquette. Mock interviews and job placement support are provided to enhance their confidence and increase their chances of securing meaningful employment. Our program equips participants with the necessary tools to stand out in competitive job markets.

 

Personal Development:
We understand that personal growth is integral to career success. Pathways to Success offers workshops and activities that promote self-confidence, resilience, goal setting, and self-advocacy. We encourage participants to recognise their strengths, overcome challenges, and develop a positive mindset. Our program fosters holistic development, ensuring participants are equipped not only for the workplace but also for life's journey.

​

Continued Support:
Our commitment to participants extends beyond program completion. We provide ongoing support through doer alumni networks, career counselling, and access to additional resources. We strive to create a lasting impact, assisting participants in their career progression, further education, or entrepreneurship endeavours. Our goal is to build long-term relationships and foster a sense of community and support.

​

Pathways to Success is more than just a work ready program; it is a transformative journey that empowers young people, opens doors to opportunities, and paves the way for a successful future. Through skills development, industry exposure, mentoring, job readiness, personal growth, and continued support, we believe in creating sustainable pathways for students to achieve their career aspirations and contribute meaningfully to society.

 

Join us in empowering the next generation and shaping a brighter future for all.
