Employability Curriculum Linked to the ‘Employability DVD’

In 2017 the film ‘Employability’ was produced by the EMPLOYABILITY Partnership of Debbie-Ann Johnson Sale & District Specialist School, Andrea McCall-Evans NDCO and Leanne Wishart, Rural Access, Wellington Shire.Darryl Whitaker was our cameraman and donated some of the time to help edit the film. The film would not have been possible without the grant from the Commonwealth Bank; we thank them for their generous donation.

The film focusses on the eight employability skills and features a number of young people with disabilities in the workplace.
