Program in Dorset,Tasmania

A new $100,000 program, managed by Skills Tasmania, will help job seekers, retrenched workers and their partners in the Dorset Municipality to gain employment. Premier and Minister for Education and Skills, David Bartlett, said the Dorset Skills Initiative aimed to help people in the region to up-skill, re-skill and gain employment. We recognise that workers in the Dorset region have been hard-hit in the past few years and this program is a way of providing some assistance, Mr Bartlett said.
