Work Placement Readiness Programme

Description:

Unloc’s Work Placement Readiness programme develops the skills and awareness of young people ahead of them entering a professional work placement or starting their career.

The programme comprises both skills and knowledge development through active learning workshops and applying that to the context of their work placement. 

We will, as best as possible, map the 4 session programme to the needs of your work placement programme and industries of focus. 

The programme is usually delivered across four half days, exploring topics including:

  1. Business etiquette
  2. Networking
  3. Presenting yourself
  4. Time management

The programme is brought to life by enthusiastic Unloc facilitators and where possible, a variety of inspiring guest speakers.
