Empowering people aged 45 and over with skills and confidence for local jobs

Refreshing digital skills that may be required in different workplaces and identifying transferable skills with lots of support to apply for jobs online and target the local hidden job market is a key component of the Workforce Australia – Career Transition Assistance (CTA) program.

Bamara provides Career Transition Assistance, a free course funded by the Australian Government, designed to help participants aged 45 and over improve their confidence and boost skills to be more competitive in their local labour market.
