SPORTS TRAINEESHIPS

The perfect stepping stone to securing an apprenticeship, further education or new job.

Not everyone is ready for work or an apprenticeship when they leave school or college, or after a period of absence.
Traineeships are the perfect stepping stone into employment. A traineeship is a flexible and cost-effective route to prepare individuals for the workplace by providing valuable work experience and employability skills. A traineeship is a great way for young people aged 16-18 to get onto the career ladder in a structured and flexible way, to gain valuable life skills in order to become more work-place ready and offering an entry route into the world of work. Employers can build a pool of high quality future recruits.Trainees learn essential employability skills and gain work experience relevant to the industry sector they want to work in. Programmes last between 8 and 13 weeks and are made up of three key elements:

          A work placement in the right sector 

           

          Functional skills – Improving English and Maths up to level 2

 


          Employability skills/work preparation activity – such as CV writing 

 

Upon successful competition of the traineeship, individuals can start their working life – whether through an apprenticeship or another paid job.
