Specialisterne Australia offers a pathway for neurodiverse individuals to connect with employers who recognise the valuable contributions and talents that they can bring to their organisation. We offer a workshop and assessment program whereby applicants can demonstrate in a practical, and patient way their skills and abilities, directly to employers.
We are excited to be working with a Federal Government partner on their Opening Doors Neurodiverse Program to attract the skills and abilities of neurodiverse people to their organisation. The program aims to build a more diverse workforce accessing new talent pools and recruiting people from diverse backgrounds. The program allows participants to develop their workplace technical and corporate skills in a supportive team environment. Our partner recognises diversity is one of the greatest assets staff bring to the workplace. By embracing individual differences our Federal Government partner supports everyone to realise their full potential in an inclusive and culturally safe work environment.
The Opening Doors Neurodiverse Program is a 12-month temporary employment
opportunity. The program has a unique structure providing participants with a
Career Development Manager to guide and support capability development and a
business manager supporting development of on-the-job technical knowledge
and skills. Participants will be actively supported and encouraged to apply for a
permanent position in future recruitment processes.
The Federal Government partner values the mutual benefits to both the incoming
candidates sourced through Specialisterne and the valuable skills and abilities
