 Ledcom are currently recruiting people to join the new Exploring Enterprise Programme and are interested in hearing from people in Larne Borough currently not in employment, training or self employment.
Potential participants could be long term unemployed, lone parents, stay at home mums, people with disabilities or with low or no qualifications, young people not in education, older workers or those recently retired.
Exploring Enterprise is a free programme which aims to help people into sustainable employment or self employment through mentoring, training and by gaining a recognised qualification in Business Enterprise. The level II certificate will involve compiling a portfolio for assessment with no examinations involved.
In addition Ledcom will offer one to one support and advice from accredited business advisors with access to mainstream business and employment support options.
There are no qualifications required to gain entry to the programme which will be delivered at a pace specifically tailored to suit individual needs. Following pre-assessment interviews commencing this month, the training will start in January 2009 and will require attendance one morning per week over 6 weeks. Additional one to one mentoring and small group sessions will be arranged at a time that suits participants.
The Exploring Enterprise Programme is funded by the Department of Employment and Learning through Enterprise NI with match funding from Larne Borough Council.
