Industry training for jobseekers

​​About industry training

Industry training is a mixture of classroom training and work experience.

We offer training courses in areas such as:

• early years
• Information Life Cycle Management (ILM) business
• care industry
• hospitality
• customer service

These courses are followed by a work experience placement with a local employer.

Training is an important part of the programme and is tailored to the needs of local businesses. It’s delivered by experts and designed to prepare you for your work placement.

Some programmes give you the opportunity to complete qualifications.

If you’re only looking for support with specific skills such as writing your CV or cover letter and job searching, Job Club may be able to help you.
