Employment & Education Program

The Transitional Employment Program allows members who lack work experience, confidence or skills for open employment, the opportunity to work at real jobs for real pay.

Members are given unlimited opportunities at TE regardless of past work history or unsuccessful attempts. There is no such thing as failure at TE.

Supported Employment supports members in job seeking for employment of their choice. We can offer help with resume` writing , writing applications and interview preparation.

Pioneer also provides support to members once they find employment. 

With Supported Education, members can find out about the latest courses available. We offer support in enrolment and with study. We can also help you link into existing support networks ( e.g. Disability Officers).
