I am reaching out on behalf of Get Set UK. We are currently delivering a range of fully funded Adult Skills programmes in Southampton, designed to support local residents to develop sector-specific skills, achieve recognised qualifications and progress towards sustainable employment.
We are keen to develop relationships with local organisations supporting Southampton residents who could benefit from training, confidence-building and employment progression opportunities.
Our current programmes include:
Teaching Assistant – Level 2
An employment-focused programme for individuals interested in developing a career within schools and education. Participants develop knowledge and skills relevant to supporting teaching and learning, alongside dedicated employability support including CV development, job searching, applications and interview preparation.
On successful completion, learners will achieve:
- Level 2 Award in Support Work in Schools
- Full and Relevant Paediatric First Aid Certificate
Hospitality & Food Hygiene
A practical, employment-focused programme for individuals interested in progressing into hospitality, catering and food-service roles. Participants develop relevant industry knowledge alongside employability skills, including CV development, job searching, applications and interview preparation.
On successful completion, learners will achieve:
- Level 1 Award in Hospitality and Catering
- Level 2 Food Safety in Catering
Across our programmes, we aim to support individuals at different starting points, including those returning to learning or employment, considering a career change, looking to build their confidence, or experiencing barriers to progression.
We would be delighted to explore how we could work in partnership with your organisation to establish a referral pathway for eligible Southampton residents. We can provide electronic and printed promotional materials for your teams and participants and would also be happy to arrange a short meeting to discuss the programmes, eligibility and referral process.
If you support individuals who may benefit from these opportunities or would like to explore how we could work together, please do get in touch. We would be very happy to discuss how we can support your participants to take their next steps towards further learning and sustainable employment.
