Aberdeenshire Employability
What can the project offer me or someone I am working with?
The project works with adults aged 16-67 who identify as disabled and/or a carer, who are post-school and may be experiencing multiple barriers to accessing work, learning, education, community engagement and volunteering. We will support learners (1:1 or in small groups) to work on their self-defined goals and achieve their potential by developing key core skills and improving qualification profiles.
Learners will be supported with the following activities:
- Confidence building
- Transition activities (such as support to go into college, work, or volunteering)
- Core skills (literacy, numeracy, CV preparation, interview preparation)
- Digital skills
- Adult Achievement Awards (SCQF levels 2-6)
- SQA accredited unite (SCQF levels 2-4)
Along the way, learners will also improve their transferrable skills for the world of work including regular attendance, commitment, communication, listening skills and team working.
