Learn Local Learning for Work will help learners enrolled in a pre-accredited program to practise what they have learnt in a work setting. This will help prepare them for the world of work or future training.

Learn Local learning for work activities will help learners to:
- practise and develop their core foundation skills, tailored to an industry or workplace
- learn about local growth industries and pathways
- understand about the range of job opportunities and realise their personal career goals
- understand better what they think work and workplaces are like
- prepare for a job by knowing what an employer wants and to better understand the workplace
- understand their own goals and interests in work
- prepare for a future placement in an accredited course.
