Development & improvement through the ESI
In 2021-2022 we launched our enhanced Employment Services Institute (ESI) with the objective of developing the professionalism and capability of the employment services workforce, and to continuously improve service quality and results achieved by employment services for stakeholders including participants, employers, governments, and the Australian public.
ESI membership is open to all who work or aspire to work in employment services or related sectors and the ESI membership categories are inclusive of experience, qualifications and achievements providing a framework for career development in the sector.
Professional Development Program
NESA’s comprehensive professional development program is a crucial part of the support NESA provides to its members and the sector. We are committed to ensuring the professionalism of the sector by providing opportunities for employment services leaders, managers, and frontline staff to increase their proficiency in specific areas, refine skills and learn new competencies.
- Facilitate consultative and capacity building opportunities through Leadership Forums, topic specific forums, our conference and events program, our professional development program, and the Employment Services Institute.
- Continue to facilitate opportunities for your organisation to engage with and contribute to NESA’s work to build and support a vibrant and sustainable employment services sector
