Work placements
Experience in the workplace is a core part of our courses and provides an opportunity for students to hone their skills such as team-working, problem-solving and communication. Placements vary in length and can bring real benefits to businesses including fresh thinking, development opportunities, increased company profile and the opportunity to work with motivated young people.
Ofsted
Further Education is a vital sector which provides learners of all ages with the skills and opportunities they need to succeed. Ofsted is actively seeking to promote employer commitment and involvement in training. They have now introduced an online feedback forum Employer View, so that employers can give their views about their employees’ training providers.
