Introduction to Employability

The Lifeskills Group of companies, is a progressive and innovative provider of training and support for not only unemployed people, but also aimed at those wishing to enhance and sustain their employment opportunities. We work with a diverse range of employers, who we regard as partners, to make a significant difference to people's lives, their communities and the society in which they live. As a group, we have been delivering effective, successful training and employability programs with human interventions for over 29 years in both the Public and Private sectors.

As a direct result we are able to tailor and focus our training, development and support programs to meet the staffing needs of the partnerships we develop with employers. This means that we have a comprehensive library of potential "job ready" clients with varying skills, knowledge and experience to meet the requirements of the "world of work". Our goal - and those of our partners today remain the same - to provide leadership, performance and sustainability solutions that unleash human potential, create engaged employees and customers, and drive organisational results and profitability.


Lifeskills employability concepts and processes have been translated into over 9000 sustainable jobs per annum. Our programs resonate with people – they make sense – and they work! Employability is a two-sided equation and for many of our clients they need various forms of support to overcome their perceived barriers to gaining initial employment, maintaining employment and obtaining new employment.

Solve Your People Puzzle

We at Lifeskills pride ourselves in working with local employers enabling  organisations to access more people with  ‘ready to work’ skills coupled with a ‘ready to work’ attitude. We believe that partnerships with key employers are central to the successful delivery of our employability goals. We seek out mutually beneficial relationships with dynamic, leading organisations that have business goals, values, and a vision that complement our own. We also provide our clients with clear, live labour market information including employer profiles, live job vacancies together with an insight into the skills, knowledge base and personal attributes they require from their staff.
