EMPLOYMENT & TRAINING

 

Contact Kathryn Kingston, Employment & Training  Development Officer for further information

The Employment and Training Advice Service has been set up to help unemployed people gain the confidence and skills necessary to return to the work force.


It is a free and confidential service where the focus is centred on the individual needs of the unemployed person, regardless of how well or poorly skilled they consider themselves to be.

 
Through personal interview we will identify the individuals strengths, skills and areas of interest which is then used to put together an agreed plan of action.

 
This personalized plan could involve relevant training, for example help with basic literacy skills, attending 3rd level education, attending a training course for a particular skill or even attending a programme in personal development.

The plan of action may include a work placement that could then lead on to employment.

To ease the transition into the work place, ongoing support will be given to people taking up employment for the first time or returning after a long break.

 
Help is available for putting together a CV, filling out application forms and interview preparation.

 

Contacting Kathryn, Employment and Training Officer
is the first step in the return to work.

The Employment and Training Advice Service is also important for Employers
