Traineeships

The government has recently pledged to provide 30k new traineeships to help young people find high quality, secure and fulfilling employment in England.

At Skillsfirst Awards we have developed a suite of qualifications to support the work preparation and work placement elements of a traineeship programme. 

Our suite of ‘Introduction to working in…’ qualifications gives learner’s an insight into employment in the following sectors;

• Children and Young People
• Customer Service
• Health & Social Care
• Hospitality
• Retail
• Sales
• Warehousing and Logistics

We also have a flexible suite of qualifications to help prepare learner’s for work, covering subjects which include communication skills, job search and interview techniques, social media awareness and developing positive attitudes and behaviours.

The majority of our qualifications are supported by free handbooks and tutor guides. Customers are encouraged to mix-and-match qualifications and units to suit their learner's needs.

Skillsfirst also offer onscreen, on-demand Functional Skills in English and Maths at level 1 & 2.
