Lifeworks Families (LWF) is an employability skills course that aims to help you find the right job for you, and having found it, to be able to get it!

We do this by firstly evaluating our situation, and then how to plan to get after our goals. This leads into what we need to do, and why we need to follow certain ‘rules,’ as well as how to make all that work to increase the chances we get what we want.

We cover so much more than how to write a CV, including a 5-course programme leading directly to nationally recognised qualifications. The 4 days are designed to work together as a whole rather than as individual sessions. Our qualifications package will provide you with a grounding in one of three career areas and provide a framework for your 12-month ‘Forward Assist’ period following the course.

On the course we will talk about:

• Day 1 – Assess where you are right now and create an action plan to improve your situation. We look at how recruitment works and begin to develop a ‘skills library.’

• Day 2 – Why you must have a CV a certain way, including what you DON’T put in, creating that CV and tailoring it. You will also be introduced to, and complete some of, a qualifications package which is part of your course.

• Day 3 - Covering letters; completing applications; starting to formulate your thinking to tell people about yourself; tricky interview questions.

• Day 4 – Interview technique and types of interview, preparing yourself and your thinking; a mock interview skills and where to get further support.

Many topics we cover might easily be called ‘Life Skills’ and there is certainly some that you can use for other situations, and even to help and support those around you.

We look forward to helping you move towards your goals.
