We will help you transition into work or education. You will get practical support to help complete your schooling, move into further education and training, and post placement support once you begin your new job. We understand that getting a job is a big thing, and we will support you every step of the way.
Are you keen to gain employment but don’t have the right experience? Do you struggle with résumés, cover letters and interviews? Don’t worry, we’re here to help!
Workforce Australia Transition to Work (TtW) is delivered by AGA who are also part of the IntoWork Group. It’s a free service that supports young people aged 15-24 years to develop practical skills to get a job.
Benefits include career coaching, work experience opportunities and industry training — and we can even connect you to local support services like mental health and housing support if needed. We’ll happily be your sidekick, supporting you every step of the way as you enter the employment world.
Joining Transition to Work gives you all this and more:

Absolutely not, we treat every person who engages with us on the same level and there’s loads of options out there regardless of your circumstances.
Work experience is available through PaTH Internships. This gives you the opportunity to show your skills to a potential employer. If you’re thinking, “I don’t have skills” then trust us, we all do!
No, we work with people from many different backgrounds and education levels. We all have transferrable skills, even if we don’t have formal qualifications. Our job is to identify those skills and get you into the workforce.
