S.U.C.C.E.S.S. delivers pre-departure services in Seoul, South Korea and Taipei, Taiwan to skilled workers, members of the family class and live-in caregivers with group orientation as the core service, supported by tailor-made workshops and Active Engagement Case Management. After attending the pre-departure orientation, clients will be linked to specific workshops with topics including labour market employment information, foreign credential recognition, health & medical services, and education & training to upgrade employment skills.
