From Unemployed to Self Employed

18 June, 2014 By Canowindra Phoenix Editor

Some people within the Canowindra/Cowra region might find themselves unemployed. Executive Office for Business Enterprise Centre (BEC), Mr. Brue Buchanan believes that these people should consider self-employment as an alternative career path.

“Self-employment is a real opportunity for people to take control of their own future” Mr. Buchanan said. There are no grants to start your business, you have to be able to fund it yourself but NEIS provides participants with training in running a micro enterprise, the development of a business plan on their proposed business and mentoring for the first 12 months of their business operation.

People who are currently unemployed who are registered with Centrelink, looking for full-time work and have a solid business idea are encouraged to contact BEC on 63620448 to arrange a meeting with a business advisor in Canowindra., or drop into the BEC at 24 Sale Street in Orange. The next Cowra / Canowindra course scheduled to commence in July 2014.
