Employability
Are you looking to get back into the job market but need some help? Well, look no further.
Nottingham College works closely with Jobcentre Plus and Nottingham City Council to support unemployed people back into work. We run employability courses throughout the year. Your Work Coach will be able to provide information on them and refer you onto your chosen course.
We hold one-day employability workshops regularly. Plus, we run bespoke training for people who want to apply for jobs in the Civil Service.
There are short courses that can support you with competency-based interviews and applications. We also run regular courses that focus on:
- building your skills
- supporting you back into work.
