STEPS INTO WORK PROGRAMME
Most of our students are very keen on gaining skills and experience that they can carry with them into the following steps of their career. During the time of their work experience, students are placed on a 12 week training programme held, where they are trained for work and given knowledge of principles and work ethics. The employer has no financial obligations as the work experience is free of charge and employers are not required to provide a permanent position after the placement ends.
If you believe you can provide students with some experience, and at the same time would like support in administration or in the accountancy function you can contact us with a job description, and we can arrange for one of our advisers to visit you.
How it works
1. The company agrees to sign up to the Steps into Work Programme
2. An advisor visits the employer to go through the following:
(a) Health and Safety Check
(b) Necessary insurance certificates – Employers and Public
(c) Potential job description, preferred hours and days of work
(d) Signing of the Service Level Agreement
3. The Company will then be sent CVs of suitable candidates who have been pre-screened/pre-interviewed and meet your requirements or are a close match.
4. The company then chooses which candidates they would like to interview.
5. Once a Candidate is selected, the start date, actual hours and days of work are agreed and the work experience placement commences.
6. If the candidate is subsequently found to be unsuitable or is unable to complete the placement e.g. they get employment elsewhere – another candidate will be provided for the remaining period (subject to availability).
