Employment foundations training:

If we're supporting you, you can access our employment foundations training. This will help you to build a strong base of employment knowledge and digital life skills.

Over 11 hours of interactive sessions, you will learn how to complete an effective job search and create good-quality job applications, succeed in job interviews and bolster your knowledge of employment rights.


How to access service:

Referrals for employment support are accepted. Once the form is submitted, individuals will be placed on a waiting list, and we will contact them to schedule the first appointment as soon as possible.

Please don’t fill the form if you, or the person you are referring, are currently receiving support or have previously received support from Breaking Barriers. Simply get in contact with your employment advisor or email enquiries@breaking-barriers.co.uk.
