Steps Into Health & Social Care – 18-30

This tailored and flexible programme is for work-ready candidates wanting to learn about the Health & Social Care sector, roles available, and support accessing them. This style of course will be perfect for candidates who are work ready and might be unable to commit to a full day or week(s) course due to other commitments such as childcare, work, or education. Perhaps they just need some interview help or want to know more about what financial help we offer to support them into their new H&SC job. After registering, interested candidates will go through our initial assessment and then be invited a 2-hour ‘Access’ session where they will learn about the sector, partners we work with, roles available, the skills and employability sessions they can sign up to, and monthly recruitment events with employers and their live vacancies.

When:  We run 2 ‘Access’ sessions each month
