“The course was not what I expected, but better as I wasn’t treated like I was at school and like an adult – and the work was more what I understood and what I needed to move into work or progress. I have grown more confident in speaking to people, I have enjoyed completing behaviour at work I have got more skills in communication and more work skills. Naz has really helped.”
“Thank you Naz you have really helped me – more than any of my teachers.”
"I just want to say a massive thank you on helping me get to where I am now in my new job – you have really taught me how to gain my confidence and to step out of my comfort zone to try and apply for new things I’ve enjoyed every moment that I had with Ixion and learned so many things while I was there , so much time and guidance went into helping me find my job and I wouldn’t of known what I would do if it wasn’t for all the help you gave me so thank you."
Jump into Work is free for young people so you won’t have to pay anything, and Ixion provide you with a training allowance.
Jump into Work is unpaid, however we provide you with a training allowance to support your studies (this doesn’t affect your benefits).
The business where you’re doing your work placement can offer you an apprenticeship if there is one available, if not we will assist you in looking and applying for opportunities.
Jump into Work is the first step towards an apprenticeship, providing you with the skills and work experience employers are looking for. This course is short, where as an apprenticeship is a much longer commitment and offers a higher level qualification at the end.
Once you have completed Jump into Work, you can apply for an apprenticeship or a job. As part of your programme you will learn how to create your CV, practice interview skills – and more!
You will gain an Employability Skills qualification, Functional Skills qualifications and depending on the career path you choose some programmes offer further qualifications such as Health and Safety and Food Hygiene.
