Training is an integral part of Community Employment.
Each learner on CE designs an Individual Training Plan (ILP) which outlines work experience and both job specific and progression training.
Job Specific Training
All participants are required to participate in basic Health and Safety training in line with our Health and Safety measures.
Participants also complete additional job specific training which support them in carrying out their duties while on the scheme. Some of the job specific training opportunities we offer participants are; Hand Held Pesticide Application, Web Authoring; Patient Moving and Payroll – Manual and Computerised.
