Studying: Employment and Skills Training

Previous School: Adult Learner

I was recommended the 6-week Employment and Skills Training courses at Boston College by the Job Centre, after becoming unemployed in April 2019. Before, I had worked within the same company for 20 years. The course has enabled me to develop my skills in CV writing, online applications and digital employment skills.

Our lecturer is brilliant. She explains everything really well. The class size is also small which is good because even though we have different career aims, we work together as a group.
