    Career Transition Service

    Whyalla header

    Workers navigating redundancy can access personalised career counselling to support their transition into another role or career.

    Delivered by RDA Eyre Peninsula (RDAEP) in partnership with Resources and Engineering Skills Alliance (RESA), the Career Transition Service aims to equip each participant with a tailored career plan, which may include referrals to free accredited training.

    This training, subsidised by the South Australian Government for contractors and workers impacted by the current downturn in Whyalla’s steelmaking, includes access to opportunities such as:

    • Fee Free TAFE and other vocational education and training (VET) courses available on the Subsidised Training List,
    • Recognition of Prior Learning,
    • Accredited occupational tickets and high-risk licences (e.g. forklift, whitecard, first aid, confined space, elevated work platform).

    To access career counselling and these no-cost training opportunities, register with the Career Transition Service or visit:
