Career Development & Skills Service Planning Forum The G21 Career Development & Skills Service Planning Forum held at The Arena on Tuesday, 1 September attracted around 60 people who provided useful data and established a cross sector working group. The G21 Career Development and Skills Service (CDSS) is a G21 Priority Project designed to more effectively integrate the service delivery agencies involved in offering workforce development and careers assistance to employers and jobseekers in the Geelong region. It will improve access to information and services for: - school leavers and other young people needing careers information in order to make suitable subject choices;
- the parents of these young people;
- those who are unemployed or at risk of becoming unemployed;
- individuals considering a career change; and
- other members of the community who are interested in what is happening in the local labour market.
The CDSS planning forum was designed to bring together a wide range of agencies involved in the delivery of these services so that agreement can be reached on how best to implement the integrated delivery model. Since the forum, the working group has met and further developed the staged establishment of the CDSS. Click here for more information about the CDSS - a G21 Priority Project.
