Programmes offered
Individual programmes
Individual programmes are made up of a series of meetings, held with the separated employee, plus regular email and telephonic support provided in between, for varying periods of time. Commencing at the “pick-up stage” of retrenchment, participants work through the career progression process, which culminates in the development of a strategy to achieve career objectives.
Group programmes
Group outplacement programmes provide many benefits and ours are designed to address key career transition-related topics through a range of individual, group and round robin exercises. Groups of individuals take part in one or more of a series of Online Outplacement Workshops, covering a full range of topics related to job search and career transition.

WHAT PEOPLE SAY

"I appreciated the group sessions as I was able to hear about other colleagues' experiences. But the 1:1 sessions were most beneficial as we focused on what it was that I wanted and where I wanted to be."

"I am convinced that if it were not for the Career Transition course run by Derek, as well as his deep understanding of human nature, I would not be in the position that I am in today. I can thoroughly recommend both the course, and Derek as a person to anyone that finds him or herself in a situation similar to mine.”
