After joining the STEPS Skills for Education and Employment (SEE) Program, San has worked tirelessly to improve his literacy, numeracy, and digital skills, building a pathway to employment and a future filled with opportunity.
A fresh start for San
San began his journey with the STEPS SEE Program in Casuarina with one clear goal in mind: to get a job. From day one, he showed up ready to work, committed to improving the skills he needed to find meaningful employment.
What brought San here
San came to STEPS with an open mind and an incredible drive. While searching for work, he realised that improving his computer, language, and numeracy skills could give him a real advantage in today’s workforce.
Every day, San would focus on job applications, cover letters, online assessments and interview preparation. His willingness to apply for any role, paired with a can-do attitude, made him stand out as a determined and focused participant and professional.
Learning with San
Throughout the STEPS SEE Program, San has strengthened the foundational skills that are crucial for employment, including:
- Improving his digital literacy, typing skills and ability to navigate search platforms
- Strengthening his language and numeracy skills
- Building skills such as teamwork, organisation and problem-solving
San credits the kind and supportive STEPS team, particularly his trainers, for helping him grow.
Success for San
San’s hard work has paid off. He’s just landed a full-time job doing maintenance and cleaning work at a defence base. With his humble attitude and strong work ethic, it’s no surprise that San has achieved this milestone.
“I’ve really enjoyed my time at STEPS,” San said.
“I’ve met amazing people and shared some great moments with my community. The trainers have been so helpful and kind.”
