Supported Employment & Mentoring / VTEC

Yanaga Dhuga Path

Starting a new job can be overwhelming at the best of times, Waminda works in Partnership with Corporate Connexions to provide a supportive mentoring program for new employee’s that are onboarding with Waminda.

It provides our newest family members with a sense of comfort to know they have met someone within our growing organisation that can assist them whilst they are settling into their new work environments and finding their rhythm with their new working role.

VTEC mentoring program is open to eligible Indigenous job seekers who are joining our Waminda family and is individualised to the mentee needs during their first 6 months of employment.
