Partnership aims to create inclusive job opportunities
A long-established Broadmeadows employment and training enterprise is partnering with Hume City Council to create more inclusive work opportunities in the local area.
Brite Institute has signed a three-year Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) agreement that will give job seekers of all abilities access to skills development and training opportunities within Hume.
The MoU makes sure that jobseekers with disabilities are supported into the job market through the Disability Pathway services and programmes.
The service is being implemented as part of the council’s Multiversity programme, which has been running for 10 years and has involved partnerships with leading training industry bodies and institutions to help better job prospects for residents of Hume.
Brite has been assisting people with disabilities to find employment for more than 40 years, 150 of whom are working for the company.
Hume City Mayor Carly Moore said the latest partnership will give community members equal opportunities to learn, and added:
Printing services are often employed for flyer printing campaigns that alert locals to special services such as the ones on offer jointly by Brite and the council.
Brite’s CEO, Robert Hannaford, said fees and subsidies for training were provided by the government, making the enterprise with the council accessible for all members of the community.
