Employment Expo at Langi Kal Kal Prison

Trouble finding skilled staff? Interested in employing prisoners post-release?

In conjunction with Weld Australia, Langi Kal Kal Prison will host a Welding Employment Expo to help facilitate connections between prisoners and prospective employees.

In 2022, Corrections Victoria expanded their VET Centre of Excellence model to deliver Fusion Welding to ISO 9606 at HM Prison Langi Kal Kal. The program links prisoners with prospective employers and pre and postrelease support. These connections provide prisoners with sustainable pathways to employment and support to reintegrate to society post-release.
