- Handle 'Disclosure' information - hints and tips
- Tackle CV & Interview techniques - including practice interviews
- Consider wider opportunities available on completion of the course
- Access additional support providers for advice on training, education, and employment
This course is designed and delivered by our Project Manager Karen.
“''When I first started the course, I couldn’t even speak on the Zoom sessions. I couldn’t name one thing that I liked about myself, but with the help of my mentor, Karen, and the course, I built my self-confidence up, my self-esteem and I actually could see a future for myself. Even though I now had a criminal record, I was shown that I could turn my life around and I did. I would of never have been able to do this without the help of this course. It really did change my life.''”
