Renewal SA Works Program: UCWB Support Worker Pre-employment Program

27 Feb 2015

The Renewal SA Works Program at Bowden proudly supports training and employment initiatives for local people.

The Uniting Care Wesley Bowden (UCWB) Support Worker Pre-employment Program is being delivered at Bowden in partnership with Western Futures, UCWB and TAFE SA.

Participants may already have a background in caring, aged care, disability or youth and have a desire to support people within the community.

People who are support workers, need to be able to bend, stretch and work on their feet for long periods so they can provide personal care and support for people in their homes.

  • deliver industry-specific training, designed in partnership with TAFE SA
  • provide accredited Senior First Aid Training, Food Safety and Manual Handling
  • provide language literacy and numeracy support for eligible participants.
