Skill Development

Practical learning pathways that connect capability, employability and entrepreneurship.

Practical education and skills activity
Programme overview

Designed around people, context and evidence.

RSDI’s skill-development approach begins with local opportunity and participant needs. Training is most useful when practical learning, mentoring and market or service linkages are planned together.

Focus areas

What the programme brings together

Activities and indicators are finalised for each project with its community context, duration and approved scope.

02

Employability readiness

Communication, workplace orientation and basic digital or financial awareness support transition.

03

Enterprise orientation

Local opportunity mapping and mentoring can help participants explore self-employment pathways.
