Transition Services
Your situation is unique. There are many variables such as personal situations, reasons for discharging, job locations, jobs to target, salary needs, different CTAS entitlements, funding sources, etc, and therefore we don't have a one size that fits all approach. Only a conversation can establish your individual needs and the matching services that will help to meet those needs. Since 2004, we have developed a range of tools, strategies and tips to help thousands successfully move from Defence into your new career.
We have individually tailored face to face programs that cover the Defence CV Coaching entitlement (up to $253), Tier 2 CTAS funding (up to $1100) and Tier 3 CTAS funding (up to $2820 – this includes on-going free interview coaching support - yes on-going) and also the flexibility to provide programs that cover other specific needs.
