Employment, Student and Training Grants

Employment, Student and Training Grants

Our job is to help you find a new career.

We might be able to help with costs to retrain for a new type of job. Or further-education fees.

We’ve can also refer you to a service to help you get back into employment or training, which looks at practical areas such as CV writing, making applications and interview skills.

We offer student grants, to those that have lived in London for 2 or more years prior to the start of the course, to help with the fees of higher education (undergraduate courses only) or training.

Whatever your age, if you want to find a new career, then we can help. Call it our own job satisfaction.

Student grants

Student grants are awarded to clients doing their first undergraduate degree and are usually spent on course fees or the tools needed to complete the course like laptops, and books.

Training grants

Training grants are usually awarded for more short-term courses, to help clients either refresh existing skills or learn new skills and strengthen career prospects.

Job coaching

Our job coaching service offers adults tailored support to help them take the next step towards employment. Through six free one-to-one Zoom sessions, our Job Coach, can help with CV writing, interview preparation, job applications, and identifying suitable opportunities. We can offer further support if needed. Whether returning to work or changing careers, support is available at each step along the way.

Chris’s Story

He’d been out of work for some time and felt that his age was counting against him when attending interviews. He was bored of doing nothing and felt he was ready to challenge himself again.
