the programme

Our daily employability training programme helps students build the skills they need to look for and get a job through accredited learning. Our step by step approach ensures that students get the help and support they need to move on in life.

Step 1. Assessment
This is a chance for students to re-evaluate their circumstances and consider their ambitions. Students identify the courses they wish to study for and agree their days for attendance.

Step 2. Starting the Programme
On the first day students have an induction with a caseworker to develop an individual learning plan and set key goals. These key goals are broken down into achievable steps.
Here's an example below:

Through Transition, students attain an SQA qualification in Personal Effectiveness.

Step 3. Completing the Goals
Weekly and monthly reviews take place to see how students are progressing in their individual learning plans. Caseworkers discuss and support students as they work through their weekly programmes. Every week our students attend they take a real step forward and are better placed to find a job.

Step 4. Moving On
Students are given one-to-one supported as they move on to training for work placements, further education and employment. All students are supported once they have achieved their career goals and moved on from the Transition programme.
