Each session will explore a different theme and strategies in either personal or job seeking skills. The course will aim to be as interactive as possible, so students can actively explore what is important to them both individually and as a group. We will explore practical, realistic steps into employment and how to make the most of job seeking activity as well as exploring some of the barriers that students might face.
