Creating Pathways
Equality & Equity
So often, providers and organisations will focus on equal opportunities for people, but there is much more to include than that. We focus on equality and equity to ensure everyone has equal opportunities but also have the support to take advantage of those opportunities.
In order to do this, we have developed a initial assessment for every learner to ensure we gather the correct information, listen to their wants and needs and develop a pathway that caters for their ability level of support needed at that moment in time.
This approach is used for both vulnerable people looking for a career pathway and employability opportunities and also those wanted to up-skill themselves and/or their workforce.
Tailored Pathways
We work very closely with businesses and local authorities to ensure young people out of work and in employment have the correct pathways to gain qualifications that lead into paid work and a sustainable and suitable career. With building a partnership with local businesses, we can help every step of the way with the learners journey into work and also the employer to provide the necessary support for the development of their workforce.
We have two pathways for learners, both work closely with the learner and employers to build relationships and so we are involved in the whole journey:
This pathway is when learners need training before being able to start work experience and applying for jobs. This is tailored to our vocational courses for people that are out of work and with all of our courses, we work with local business that relate to their course for them to gain experience at the end of the course.
This is for a range of people whether they out of education, already in a job and looking to up-skill themselves or wanting to develop in their career with apprenticeships/qualifications. With these training programmes, we create the pathway whereby they complete their training and gain work experience at the same time and learn on the job as well.
Initial Assessment
Our initial process ensures we correlate and extract the most important information to create a picture of who the learner is. Including the driving motivators, challenges and barriers. We use this information to produce a detailed person-centred progressive and development plan and align vocational courses that are right for them.
Finding a career
Throughout the year we hold career events for people to come along, sepak to employers and listen to talks from various industries. If you’d like to know more about our next career event please contact us.
