What is it?

Job Ready is a training programme to help young people develop the skills and qualifications to find the job they want. Opportunity Youth’s training style is very different – our sessions are fun, active and innovative.

Our programme is led by youth workers – other young people who have a lot in common with the trainees. We want to give young people an opportunity to gain the skills and qualifications that employers look for.

Who can benefit?

  • You have left school, or are about to leave full time education.
  • You are between 16-18yrs
  • You aren’t able to find employment, or are unsure of what job you want to do

What’s involved?

  • Training to give the confidence needed to find a job
  • Job sampling and work placement experience
  • Qualifications in Youth Work and Life & Work skills
  • Learning through sports, activities and fun
  • 52 week training course
  • A training fee of £40 a week
  • Cash bonuses 4 times a year
  • Travelling expenses/Childcare may also be paid

Earn money while you learn, while developing the all important skills and qualifications that employers look for. Job Ready will help you develop all you need to get the job you want.
