Training and Skills Academy

Is a volunteer led training programme funded by Nationwide Building Society.
Our academy provides an individual training programme for each placement to work towards. The programme is identified and decided by the beneficiaries themselves in order for them to think about how their existing skills and experience can be developed through training and education to help the individual become more competitive in the job market.
We find the most effective training is on the job training, whether it is accredited qualifications or through an on-job training plan.
We have two training rooms where we provide a wide range of education and training for existing placements and employees.
​
Educating and training people with poor self-esteem and lack of confidence is challenging, but the Garnsychan Partnership has successfully proved that providing a safe, relaxed, and encouraging learning environment is the key to establishing a renewed workforce and economy in valleys communities.
We aim to provide a range of in–house
workshops and training courses to
increase confidence and boost skills
set that employers require.
Our Training Academy Office provides
One–to–One support to ensure that participants can address any barriers that prevent them from fulfilling their potential. Alongside a weekly job club where participants can access advice and I.T. for Job Search and CV activities.​​​​​
