Local Jobs Program

The Local Jobs Program supports the development and implementation of tailored approaches to accelerate reskilling, upskilling and employment across Australia and seeks to provide tailored responses to support local labour markets.

The Local Jobs Program is delivered in all 51 Employment Regions across Australia and brings together key local stakeholders including businesses, employment services providers, education and training organisations to work collaboratively to design projects and develop solutions and Local Recovery Fund activities that skill people to meet local business demand.

Launch into Work

The Launch into Work program supports the delivery of pre-employment projects that prepare individuals for specific entry-level roles with an organisation.

Projects are co-designed with businesses and tailored to the needs of the business. This ensures that individuals build the skills, experience and confidence they need to commence in entry-level roles.

The program is primarily focused on creating long-term employment pathways for women.
