Workwise at Ettalong provides help for educationally disadvantaged unemployed youth each school term through the Helping Early Leavers Program (HELP).
The State funded program aims to help young people develop everyday literacy and numeracy, self esteem and social skills through courses.
HELP also aims to prevent unemployment by improving school retention by allocating a small number of places each term to school students 15-years-old and over who are at risk of leaving school early.
Four courses are offered each term and include an introduction to Childcare, computers, creative arts or performing arts.
A spokesperson for Workwise said the course content is largely hands-on and every attempt is made to make each learning experience enjoyable and therefore memorable.
Courses run for 10 weeks and attendance is 10 to 12 hours per week over two days.
