Training for Work

Our Training for Work programme aims to help the long-term unemployed aged 25+ improve their work-related skills through training and work experience. The programme is delivered through a network of training providers who offer work-related training and employer placements to improve individuals’ prospects.

The expected length of stay on the programme is 13 weeks. Training providers will endeavour to place individuals with an employer within the first week.

Jobcentreplus is responsible for identifying eligible individuals and helping them choose the best options within Training for Work.

Training for Work can lead directly to employment.
