Reimagining Career Transitions with Bridie Searle

Send us a text

After leaving school in Year 11 and becoming Australian Trainee of the Year 2023, Bridie Searle saw a gap in practical life skills education and created Ready Skills. The program equips young people, career changers, and those re-entering the workforce with the confidence and capabilities they need to thrive in work and life.

We explore how Ready Skills is helping organisations by:

• Building employees with strong financial literacy, workplace confidence, and professional communication
• Reducing onboarding time through staff who are better prepared for the realities of work
• Supporting personal branding and self-management skills that enhance employee contribution
• Offering accessible programs that extend opportunities to regional and rural talent pools
• Developing well-rounded employees who are more likely to grow and advance within the organisation

Bridie’s story is an inspiring example of how practical education can transform both individual lives and workforce outcomes.
