Vintage Advantage Starts Tomorrow
I’ve been accepted into an employment training program called Vintage Advantage. The purpose of the training is assist people 55 to 65 years old in finding employment or starting their own business.
The facilitators of the program say that it helps you discover hidden areas of interest and forgotten abilities which are in demand in today’s job market. Emphasis isn’t on finding just any job, but the perfect job.
I have high hopes for the program. They claim to have a 100% success rate. My intention right now is to go into the business stream, but, if the perfect job comes along I wouldn’t turn it down.
The program starts tomorrow and runs for three months. I’ll give regular updates here on my progress and the things I learn as the program unfolds.
Watch this space for daily updates!
