Want to improve your prospects?
On Track is a NEW course for people who want to improve their prospects. We’ll take you through an NVQ Level 1 in a preferred vocational area which could lead to an apprenticeship and improve your prospects in finding work!
What is it?
A 10 week programme aimed at getting young people aged 16 - 18 interested in starting on an NVQ Level 1 in a preferred vocational area. How will it work?
Learners will attend NTC 2 days a week for training in Retail Skills, Literacy, Numeracy and ICT, as well as doing a few days a week in a work placement. On Track is roll-on roll-off so learners may start at any time.
Learners will do a minimum of 12 hours a week. They can do more hours in their placements if they wish to.
Benefits of doing the course
Learners will have the chance to do short courses in First Aid and Fire Awareness and complete CIEH Level 1 Health and Safety Awareness.
Learners will work towards an NVQ Level 1 in a preferred vocational area. If they do not complete in the 10 weeks they can move on to e2e to complete.
Learners are eligible for EMA.
All learners on the course will have their travel costs refunded.
Progression
Learners can move onto e2e after completing the 10 weeks of On Track – this will give you extra time to complete the NVQ. Once you have completed the NVQ you can move on to an apprenticeship (NVQ 2 with an apprenticeship allowance of £95 per week) or a programme led pathway (NVQ 2 and you can claims EMA)
