ACT Training Services offers services to individuals as well. For anyone who needs help with the basics like resume writing and/or job interview skills, perhaps those professionals who are looking for a promotion or the unemployed looking to reintegrate themselves into the employment environment.
Part of ACT’s role as a social enterprise, the company is committed to quality, equal opportunity, health and safety and the environment.
