We provide IT Work Experience
& Youth Enterprise Training
Our
Work Experience and Enterprise Training has been specifically
designed
for College or University leavers or those with other skills
who have an
interest in working within the IT sector and also to help
them take
that first step into work. Our programs provide free Work Experience and Enterprise Training to give the students the practice they need to secure interviews and ultimately gain employment.
After an initial assessment of their IT skills, students can volunteer for a maximum of 30 hours per week in return for valuable experience and advice.
Each student is enrolled onto our training program, which teaches them a variety of different skills during their placement with us.
Participants improve their business skills and learn the importance of a good CV. Other aspects of the course cover sales and marketing, involvement in IT projects, positive behaviour, interview techniques and dressing appropriately for a professional environment
There is the opportunity
to work with hardware: repairing computers and
replacing hard-drives. There is also the opportunity to work
with software: upgrading or removing viruses, website design
or creating apps.
Where possible, all students are actively encouraged to visit trade shows and take part in business networking meetings. We source real clients for students, so they can gain real-life experience.
By the end of their time with us, our students will be well equipped to succeed in the 'world of work', have the knowledge, confidence and track record to secure the best job that fits with their aspirations either in the IT world or any other sector.
