New Premises Opening and Graduation!
Tuesday, 22nd November 2016 was a highlight for all of us at WorkVentures. Months of planning and many hours of preparation came together on the night with our special invited guests enjoying a celebration of not only the new workplace we’ve now settled into, but also the opportunity to acknowledge the graduating Trainees and their achievements.
Our very special guest, The Honourable Bob Carr, cut the ribbon on our new premises, presented certificates to our graduating Trainees, spoke eloquently and inspiringly about his long association with us and the future of training that supports both the kids needing jobs and the workplace needing staff.
Our Academy Manager, Scott Dibb sharing the vision for our alternative training pathway to reduce youth unemployment.
A word or two from a successful graduate
One of our successful trainees, Jason Keogh, shared his journey from his days as a newbie trainee right through to his current job where he is continuing to build his certifications while enjoying a successful career.
We weren’t going to let Bob go home without a gift and we made sure it was unique in the way we do things at WorkVentures. Pumpkins, chillies, herbs and other vegetables fresh picked from our rooftop garden maintained by our staff was a tasty selection of produce!
Our guests were our valued staff, current and past, supporters, members, trainees, graduates, parents and friends. We can’t thank you all enough for coming along and making the night so heartwarming, exciting and fun.
