Success
Stories
These are some
comments from participants on Pacific Institute STEPS courses
run by Dare Training Ltd.
Client 1
I
thoroughly enjoyed the course and made a lot of new friends.
I feel more focused on achieving my goal, which is
to get employment. I have not worked for 5 years
and felt my confidence had hit rock bottom. I now
feel I am ready to resume part time employment initially
and then progress to full time. (He is going to liaise
with the Aberdare Programme Centre to use their facilities
for Job Search and he would like to do a work placement
when one becomes available).

I
enjoyed the course and wish it could have gone on for longer.
It has given me more confidence and has changed my
attitude and the way I look at things. (She has registered
at the Aberdare Programme Centre and is going to College
in September to study High Tech Skills on a full time course).
Client
3
It
helped me to look at situations in a positive way, where
as before I tended to look at it more negatively.
Now when I get set backs I am trying to learn that it is
only a set back and I can continue. I feel it has
helped me gain more confidence at the way I view things.
(She's been referred to WBLA and is hoping for a
Job placement. She is going to continue with her
Clait studies).

I
have enjoyed the course and I am eager to progress further
with my studies. I believe my confidence has grown
during the last 6 weeks and would like to stay positive. (She is starting a part time job in 'Cwmdare Welsh
Primary' after school club and is also working Voluntary
on a Tue/Thur morning in a crèche in a church. She
will attend an Open day with Aberdare College to speak to
a representative about doing office skills and will also
liaise with the Aberdare Programme Centre to continue Job
Search.

I
enjoyed the course and it has helped with my confidence.
I also stop and think more now instead of shouting.
I have also made friends and gained more confidence
with other people. (She has registered with the Aberdare
Programme centre to use their job search facilities).

Being
on the course has given me focus and helped me back into
a routine and also enabled me to see that I am not the only
one with problems and can get around them. (She is
attending the Aberdare Programme Centre on a regular basis
and has attended several job interviews).
