These qualifications have been designed to enable learners to explore a broad range of essential skills. As well as job search skills, they consider personal preparation for employment, self-improvement and effective behaviour at work.

This Level 2 programme will provide learners with the opportunity to develop and enhance skills required for the working environment. They will also explore job-searching techniques and will gain an increased awareness of the range of opportunities available in employment.
