improving the lives of women by ending inequality

Women@Work

Women@Work is an art-based, educational program aimed at increasing confidence and identifying skills needed to obtain employment.

Women@Work is suitable for all women, whether they are experiencing long term or short term unemployment.  Mature women who have never been employed will benefit from Women@Work, as will young women just entering the workforce.

Using art therapy and traditional educational techniques, women will be guided through self development exercises, practical discussion and a range of activities to explore a variety of topics:

  • personal skills
  • self esteem
  • communication techniques
  • conflict resolution
  • stress management
  • goal setting
  • overcoming fears and barriers
  • employer expectations
  • value of work
  • job and workplace research
  • resume writing
  • interview techniques and rehearsals

Programs can be approximately 30 hours in duration and can be flexible in delivery.  Women@Work can be booked through YWCA Victoria to be presented at a venue that is convenient.  This program can be run in Melbourne and Geelong.
