Volunteers

When volunteering, Skills For Adults requires background references to ensure your suitability and a current Resume. Here's an overview of what that entails:

Types of References

Character References: Typically, Skills For Adults request references from individuals who can vouch for your character, work ethic, and suitability for working with our clients.
Professional References: These may come from previous employers or supervisors who can speak to your experience and qualifications relevant to the role.

Timeline

The time required to gather and submit references can vary, but it usually takes about 2 to 3 weeks for references to respond and for Skills For Adults to review them.

Summary

Background references are an essential part of the volunteer application process. They help Skills For Adults ensure volunteers are trustworthy and fit for the roles they will undertake.

Please email Volunteer@SkillsForAdults.edu.au with your details (contact details, age, work experience and expectation) and someone will be in contact you shortly.
