Sector Based Work Programmes (SBWP) – move into a new sector
These are short intensive courses to help job seekers apply for work with a particular employer or in a particular type of role. Buckinghamshire Adult Learning delivers SBWPs in conjunction with JCP who refer their customers to us. Typically these online programmes are one or two weeks long with teaching sessions every day and can lead to a relevant qualification. They also include some work experience or a speaker from the employer organisation will join the class to give an insight into the role. An important element of the programme is training in employability skills such as completing job applications and preparing for video interviews.
Enquiries for these programmes can be made by email to cldevteam@buckinghamshire.gov.uk or call 01296 382403.
