Our Skills Bootcamps

Exciting news! Skills Bootcamps are now available to help adults aged 19 and over. These free and flexible courses are designed to help individuals gain the skills needed to secure a job or advance their careers. They focus on sectors facing worker shortages or skill gaps. Lasting up to 16 weeks, participants are guaranteed a job interview upon completion, or they will receive support to apply their newly acquired skills in the workplace.

Who can join our Skills Bootcamps?

Bootcamps are open to all adults aged 19 and over, whether you’re employed full-time, part-time, self-employed or currently seeking employment. Even if you’ve been out of work for a while, you’re still eligible. Most Bootcamps don’t require any prior industry knowledge.

Already employed? No worries! You can still enrol in a Bootcamp to enhance your skill set. Simply discuss it with your employer to see if it aligns with your current job and if you can manage both simultaneously.
