As part of the state government’s move to amalgamate all its funded career and employment services, Directions Workforce Solutions Northam team has undergone some changes to both the name and their location.
Directions Career Centre and Aboriginal Workforce Development Centre now come under the one banner of Wheatbelt Jobs & Skills Centre as part of the broader Jobs & Skills WA.
The local employment service is now located at the Northam Central Regional TAFE campus on Hutt Street in December, 2018 to help form the Jobs and Skills Centre.
Directions Northam team leader and Indigenous mentor Brenda DeAtta said the new site creates a one stop shop for job seekers.
She said the team, made up of the same faces and same services is settling in well to their new space.
Ms DeAtta said Directions hope to be able to provide for their current clients as well as those who come into the TAFE unsure of employment and career opportunities.
Through Directions Workforce Solutions students and job seekers have access to career information, training an course information, job searching and job matching, apprenticeship and traineeship assistance and skills and qualification recognition information.
