I have been nominated Australian of the year 3 times and awarded Pride Medal of Australia for Community Spirit.
It was an honour to be recognised for;
“Connected Inc” was the Charity I founded to assist rebuild the lives of 22,000 Australians recover from the Queensland floods.
“Back To Work Training”- was the Job preparation and motivational training company to help over 10,000 long term unemployed and people with disabilities return to work. This training was formatted into a Documentary by SBS.
SBS Television named myself the “Work Training Specialist Guru” being featured delivering my workshops in the International Documentary called “The Unemployables”.
This Documentary was successful in transforming and empowering 8 out of 10 highly disadvantaged individuals and return to work after 4 weeks.
These services are individually tailored and can be delivered face to face or ZOOM Meetings.

Craig Michaels programs have been inspiring change and empowering people around the world with the help of his SBS Documentary 'The Unemployables'.
His focus is to share his training and knowledge of how he was able to help over 33,000 Australians and many more overseas with no resources.
Craig wasn't wealthy but was determined, and every time the goal post changed, he dug deep and reinvented his business to ensure he could keep helping people.
It did not matter if it was a Charity for the floods in 2011 in Queensland or renovating a 3 level building in Chapel St Melbourne called “First Impressions Count” to help others.
The concept was to give job seekers a destination to be groomed, trained and fitted out in their new interview clothing in his shop.
By sharing the secrets, he gave his knowledge and the tools of the trade to other industry leaders to allow them to help others as well.
Alone we can struggle, together we can change the world or at least improve the lives of thousands through pathways to employment and education.
Join me and work together to transform peoples' lives.
Craig has spoken at several industry events including:
CEO Sleepout Vinnies

Australian Society of Rehabilitation Counsellors ASORC

Craig met with Julia Gillard whilst she was Prime Minister to talk about the Charity he had founded in January 2011. They discussed the new systems that Connected had built for future disasters in Australia and overseas.
