Supporting over 45’s on their journey to employment
It’s never too late to transition into your dream job. If you’re over 45, and you’ve been looking to make a career change, we can help you make that happen.
What is Career Transition Assistance?
Career Transition Assistance (CTA) is a new program to support over 45’s on their path to employment. The scheme aims to increase the job readiness of mature-age job seekers, boosting their confidence and providing tailored assistance such as aligning job applications to their transferable skills and experience.
Who is eligible for Career Transition Assistance?
To enrol in the Career Transition Assistance program, you must be:
- Aged 45 years or over
- Registered with a jobactive provider
Not currently registered with jobactive? Make sure you talk with a jobactive provider, and register with the program as a volunteer job seeker.
If you access the program through us, we can then refer you to CTA, so you can enrol in the scheme.
