Blind Citizens Australia (BCA) recognises that being a person who is blind or vision impaired impacts life in many ways.
Gaining and maintaining employment is certainly an area that people who are blind or vision impaired are at greater disadvantage.
BCA, through our 'An Eye to the Future' Program is working with people who are blind or vision impaired who are looking for support to enter into internships in their chosen field, or with a view to change professional direction.
An Eye to the Future Program aims to bring together those seeking internships with potential employers.
We are encouraging those that would benefit from support in this area, to complete this form, creating a profile to add their details to our database.
BCA will cross reference your skills, experience and expertise with those that employers are seeking. If your profile matches, BCA will share your details with the employer.
Please understand that by completing this profile, and joining our database:
-
We (BCA 'An Eye to the Future' team) will treat your personal information with utmost respect and only share your details with appropriate prospective employers if any are found.
-
We do not guarantee that we will find you an internship, and strongly encourage you to continue your job searches.
-
You are welcome to ask that your details be removed from our internship database at anytime.
If you have any questions please contact us at bca@bca.org.au or by calling us on 1800 033 660.
