🚀 Embarking on a transformative journey that surmounts challenges to create a lasting impact! 🌱 Rarely do we encounter opportunities to make a difference that resonates through generations. The road is rugged, the hurdles formidable, yet the taste of success is sweet, transforming lives along the way. 🌈 We've touched the lives of 25 remarkable Indigenous individuals, carving a path for them to acquire life skills, job-ready expertise, and, most importantly, confidence and dignity. It's a progression from navigating struggles to embracing the harmonious rhythm of a healthy life—mentally, emotionally, and physically. 💪 By fostering a nurturing space, a supportive environment, and cultural safety, we've witnessed astounding growth and flourishing. Each success story transcends mere employment; it symbolizes a monumental moment of restoring dignity, self-respect, and a deep sense of belonging. These transformations resonate not only within individuals but also send ripples through families and communities. 🌺 The ATAL program signifies just the beginning—a substantial drop in the ocean generating ripples of goodness across our community. The seeds of hope we've sown will evolve into a thriving ecosystem, nurturing the community for years to come. 🌍 Today, I humbly pay my respects to their Elders, both past and present. The program's results and impact stand as a testament to the Reconciliation Act and the embodiment of everyday respect. Together, we're crafting a narrative of positive change—one that will endure for generations. Feeling truly blessed to have played a part in this incredible journey. 🙏✨ #MakingADifference #CommunityImpact #ATALProgram #ReconciliationAct #EverydayRespect Brendon Cappelletti, Alana Dunning, Darryl Carr, Marcus Ward, Will Webster, Andy S., Nilesh Makwana, Jeremy Chetty, Dr Eunice Sari, Louise-Marlena Tarrier, Ketan Shah

Week 3 of My Internship at Saudi Electricity Company : (waste manifest report) During this week,I was introduced to the waste manifest report system, which is crucial for documenting and ensuring the safe disposal of hazardous and non-hazardous waste from Saudi Electricity Company ’s power plants. It was an eye-opening experience to see how large-scale waste management is handled and how important it is for environmental compliance and safeguarding our ecosystems. Looking forward to gaining more knowledge and skills in the coming weeks! #EnvironmentalCompliance #WasteManifest #Internship #Sustainability

🇧🇷 In Brazil, Actemium, in partnership with the National Industrial Apprenticeship Service (SENAI), is promoting the integration of young people into the industrial market through the "Aprendiz de Caldeireiro" ("Apprentice Boilermaker") programme ⚒️ Aimed at young people aged between 16 and 17, the programme is divided into two parts:  📖8 months' training at SENAI, where apprentices acquire essential theoretical knowledge; ⚙️1 year in an Actemium business unit, where they have the opportunity to put into practice what they have learned at school. From the beginning, participants receive remuneration, which encourages commitment throughout the programme ✅ The aim of this partnership is to train qualified professionals who are ready to meet the challenges of the industrial sector. The young apprentices not only receive a job opportunity, but also a solid foundation from which to develop within the company 🤝 Actemium Brasil VINCI Energies Brasil #PoweredByYourEnergy

We’ve established the Aboriginal Training and Liaison (ATAL) program through a co-design process with the Traditional Owner groups we work with in the Pilbara, Western Australia. This work ready program is focused on empowering participants to develop skills for ongoing employment in different jobs and industries across the Pilbara. “The ATAL program initially goes for 18 weeks. After that, participants go into a nominated ATAL role, traineeship or an apprenticeship, receiving further wraparound support while they’re in that employment. The idea is that straight out the gate, they’re ready to go inside the gate,” says Jill Harris, ATAL Program Lead. “We do all the things that necessary, so they can make the transition into Rio Tinto, and find out more about the types of roles that exist across the business. The difference with this programme is that it’s not just about employment with Rio Tinto. It’s about employment, full stop. For our participants to achieve success, security, their dreams and what they want for their families is important to us.” Out of the 14 participants who graduated from the program this year, 13 will be joining Rio Tinto in apprenticeship and trainee roles. 🔗 Learn more about the partnership: https://lnkd.in/gp6xQekF #Communities #Partnerships #FindingBetterWays

Big News for Apprenticeships and Net Zero! 🌍 British Gas has just announced they're set to hire 300 new apprentices.

One of the great things about #NationalApprenticeshipsWeek is hearing so many positive examples of the opportunities they provide. One such example was launched this week by Shell, which offers a variety of programmes, making it well worth a look. 👇 #NAW2024 #Apprenticeships #EnergyTransition

WHO IS RESPONSIBLE? Following graduation from engineering school, you diligently sought job opportunities for over a decade without success. Instead of utilizing this time to enhance your engineering skills through vocational studies or apprenticeships, your pride hindered you due to your status as a graduate. I reflect on my own experience years ago when I had the privilege of undergoing vocational skills training under the program organized by the Dangote Group in collaboration with the Industrial Training Fund (ITF). This marked the inception of my journey in the field of electrical engineering. Selected from various polytechnics upon completion of our National Diploma programs, we underwent a rigorous selection process comprising written assessments, oral interviews, and aptitude tests. Approximately 100 individuals from diverse institutions across Nigeria were granted the opportunity for training, accommodation, meals, stipends, and eventual job placements upon successful program completion. Many of us went on to pursue further education and professional certifications, achieving success in our current roles thanks to the vocational training we received. This underscores the fact that conventional education, particularly in engineering, is insufficient to kickstart one's career as a young graduate. It is imperative to first cultivate the skills and experiences required by the industry or organization you aspire to join in order to advance and secure meaningful employment. Let's cease the blame game and instead embrace vocational skills, apprenticeships, or internships today. Remember, no one will extend a helping hand unless you take the initiative to help yourself.
