Local employer support increases placements
There has been a marked increase in the number of our Training For Success participants gaining placements. The number of participants on placement has increased by 30% over the last few months.
Vocational training is vital to the success of the participants on the programme: teaching them the skills they need to complete their qualification and prepare them for work. BCW Training Ltd would like to give a big thank you to the local employers who have supported the Training For Success Programme and gave these young people a chance.
If you are a local employer in Moyle and are interested in being a placement provider for the Training For Success Programme (16 to 18 year olds) or Steps to Work Programme (18 years +) please visit the Employers section of the website at www.bcwtraining.co.uk or call us on 028 2076 2902.
Steps into Employment
The Steps to Work Programme is still proving a success for its participants in the Moyle area. BCW Training Ltd has helped 9 members of the Moyle community back into employment from June to November 2012.
The individuals attended a placement with the potential employers and then successfully gained employment in the following vocational areas: administration, electronic engineering, maintenance, retail and tourism.
We are so pleased for those who have gained employment through the Steps to Work Programme and we wish them all success in the future.

It was an opportunity to showcase the hard-work of our learners whilst providing a good networking platform for BCW Training Ltd and its connections in the wider community.
Guest speakers and business owners: Zoe Campbell and John Quinn spoke about how BCW Training Ltd provided them with the training and confidence to start up their own businesses. Greenlight Gateway provided delicious food and refreshments and a great evening was had by all.
