Disability Guru Helen Cooke - Downunder Tour

Graduate Recruitment - Attracting People with Disabilities

  • Tuesday 14 & Wednesday 15 May 2013, Sydney
  • Tuesday 21 May 2013, Melbourne
  • Thursday 23 May 2013, Perth
The business case for employing graduates with disabilities is compelling. In fact failure to develop an inclusive recruitment program including graduates with disabilities carries a high level of risk. Available data in Australia indicates that around 5% of new graduates have a declared disability, but the percentage is growing. In the UK and USA, it's already above 10%. The trend in Australia is anticipated to be similar. Employers and recruiters are becoming increasingly interested in redressing this imbalance. It makes good business sense to have access to the full range of available talent. Helen Cooke is a HR professional, disability consultant, trainer and speaker in the UK. She is recognised for her significant role as an agent for change.
