What we do

Melly’s prepares apprentices for employment by focusing on three key areas: Transferable job skills, real work experience, and understanding employment.

We build workplace and personal skills through Melly’s Interactive Development Program, over 200 hours of hands-on training that  includes 16 modules on Workplace Skills—critical for job acquisition—and 16 Pillars on Personal Development, which foster the intrinsic skills necessary for job retention.

We prepare each apprentice for employment through Melly’s Workday, offering paid work experiences where they can apply their newly acquired skills and learn best practices for employment.

We connect our graduates with employers that are looking for their next outstanding employee through Melly’s Bridge.

Why it works

Employers are introduced to candidates we are confident will be a strong fit for their workplace.

Every candidate we present has completed more than 200 hours of hands-on workplace training and paid work experiences at Melly’s, with performance scores of 85% or higher.

We focus on matching people to roles that align with the skills they already excel in and are motivated to keep building.

Our graduates want to work, can work and are actively looking for work in the community.
