Delivering on behalf of Serco on the Skills Support for the Workforce programme (SSW), GBS has an opportunity to provide training to those in work across pathways including digital marketing and IT.
These programmes will be delivered remotely, with the option of returning to face-to-face delivery when safe to do so. The programmes will be typically delivered over eight weeks and will provide a great foundation to progress on to higher levels of training.
GBS director John Cusworth said: “The partnership provides GBS with a fantastic opportunity to support the local skills agenda and enrich lives with new digital and IT skills in the Derbyshire area.”
At the end of the programme, individuals who successfully complete the course will receive accredited certification with either NCFE or BCS, both of which can lead to further progression such as higher level apprenticeships in digital marketing or IT.
John added: “We are really pleased to have been selected to work in partnership with Serco to deliver the SSW programme. Being able to offer short course provision in a sector in which we specialise can really benefit our network of employers, and at the same time complement our existing offering of apprenticeships and more recently ‘Digital Bootcamps’.”
If your business could benefit from fully-funded training in digital marketing and IT, please contact GBS directly on 01246 925 923 or info@gbs-ltd.co.uk and a member of the team will be more than happy to discuss your requirements.
The SSW programme is co-financed by the European Social Fund (ESF) and the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA) so the training can be accessed at no cost to your business.
