Fast-tracking you back into work this New Year
Job hunters living in Warwickshire looking for free training and a fast-track back into work could find just the answer with a new scheme launching this new year.
The Sustained Employment through Learning (SetL) project was launched almost a year ago to get people back into work and enjoying a career in a job of their choice.
And the project, which delivers free training to unemployed people living in Warwickshire, is now setting up the Fast Track scheme.
The scheme, delivered through Warwickshire County Council, is aimed at people whose new year’s resolution is to find a good job and quick. It will offer a package of intense training over a few weeks aimed at improving both job skills and confidence, alongside help in finding a job, completing application forms and CVs.
Helen Flanagan, SEtL Project Manager, said: “This is a great opportunity for people who are currently out of work to prove to employers that they have the necessary skills to make a positive contribution. Depending on the route the people want to follow we can help them gain qualifications in ICT, Maths and English within a short period of time.
“In our experience, people often lose confidence in their abilities if they are out of work for any period of time. We will work with these people to help them rediscover their strengths and skills in a way that will give them the confidence to get back out there. And for those who need help with the whole job application and interview process then we’ll help them through this too.”
The Fast Track is a complete package to help people get the job they want, and fast.
The scheme is being delivered in Nuneaton, Leamington and Rugby. To find out more or to book a place for the January intake phone the Fast Track Hotline on 024 7632 1972.
In order to be eligible for the project people need to be out of work at the moment and be aged 19 or over. SEtL is delivered by Warwickshire County Council. The project receives funding from the European Social Fund and the Learning and Skills Council.
