Skills, Training and Employment

 

Woodland training course LeedsWe provide an inclusive and supportive environment for young people to develop the skills and experience necessary for employment, and can also support people to explore further education or training options.

Most typically we focus on tackling worklessness with young people not in education, employment and training (NEETs). We run practical courses that provide people with hands-on experience and the opportunity to gain qualifications.

We also help increase people’s chances of gaining employment through providing work placements, literacy and numeracy qualifications, and supporting them to explore further education, training or employment options such as CV writing, job shops and interview skills.
