Employers value effective Literacy, Numeracy, Communication and IT skills. Skills for Life support will enable you to gain these skills to the level and kind of employment you wish to enter and, by doing, so, make you more desirable as an employee in the open jobs market.
Staff will support you in your training area and also provide additional one-to-one workshops if you need them. An intensive period of support is also at the beginning of your course to enable you to progress more effectively in your training programme.
There is also an opportunity to achieve the following additional qualifications to prove your skills to an employer:

  • The European Computer Driving Licence (ECDL).
  • Adult Literacy at Entry, 1 and 2 levels.
  • Adult Numeracy at Entry, 1 and 2 levels.
