Project Y is a unique opportunity developed by Break O’Day Employment Connect. The aim is to:

  • empower young people to build their future
  • create a skilled workforce for our local region
  • strengthen community connection

Through our personalised focus young people will be invited to industry information sessions, workplace site visits and get free, ongoing mentor support. We will assist by:

  • sourcing work experience opportunities
  • helping to develop career plans
  • creating resumes, cover letters and having interview practice
  • discussing local options and ideas
  • connecting with other support services and providers
  • working on soft skills and other work/life skills

We’re aiming to assist young people as they transition out of the education system and into the workforce. Any local young person under 25 (or close to) is able to access Project Y, and it’s completely free. Simply email us at projecty@bodec.org.au for more information.
