Online Workshops

Our topics and interactive sessions allow your employees to deal with and manage the change, put together professional documentation for the job market, and understand how to navigate their way through this market to their next opportunity. Zoom and Teams are available for online workshops.

We can create an online package that will best suit the needs of you and your employees. Contact us today to discuss your requirements.

Career Development

Creating a career that is meaningful and fulfilling is a goal that many of us strive towards and at times struggle with. Understanding the core career components that influence our decisions making processes, in addition to being able to conceptualise what our career futures look like, can be a powerful process that helps us achieve our goals and vision.

By attending an online career workshop, employees will be able to gain clarity to develop their unique career vision and identify ways to grow within their current roles and the wider industry. Tools and techniques learnt from their attendance will ensure they exercise ownership over the design and creation of their own career path, with clear and measurable goal setting strategies. This is an opportunity to reflect and indulge in career planning activities with workshops that cover:

• Understanding career values
• Assessing motivational drivers
• Exploring career preferences
• Demonstrating key skills and talents
• Creating a long term career path
• Developing key milestones

 

Workshops can be developed to fit in with your employees busy schedules – ideally across 2 - 4 hours.
