Aimed at 16-25 year olds who are unemployed and lacking in qualifications or confidence, it’s a great opportunity to develop your existing skills and gain new ones. Even better, it’s free of charge and doesn’t affect any benefits. City of Portsmouth College is also the first provider in the country to offer one extra-special team programme, especially designed for young people with a learning difficulty or disability:
- week 1 – team introduction
- week 2 – action-packed residential week
- weeks 3/4/5 – planning and completing a local community project
- week 6 – work placement preparation
- week 7/8 – work placement
- week 9 – next steps, including CV workshops, interview techniques and guest speakers
- week 10/11 – team challenge
- week 12 – presentation.
You will complete a two-week work placement, take on rewarding projects in the community and enjoy an adventurous five-day team building residential trip. Activities during the residential week could include archery, canoeing and high ropes.
Seven out of 10 young people helped by the Prince’s Trust move on to education, training or employment.
