Course programme
The Insights course is aimed at new college learners usually aged 16-19 who need to develop skills for further education, training or employment. It may be possible to fast-track learners if there is an opportunity to do so, and providing the learner is committed.
The course is full-time but part-time options are available if required.
You will be required to set your own aims and objectives, and to look at the local employment and course opportunities that are suitable for you. You will consider your own strengths and ability to learn new skills in these areas. You will be encouraged to try out a number of different practical things that may be suitable for you.
This will depend on your individual circumstances. You will work towards:
English and maths Stepping Stones qualifications, Functional Skills or GCSE as appropriate to support your skills and progression in these subject areas. These skills are essential for employment and will be an integral part of your vocational programme.
You will have the opportunity to gain some short vocational qualifications from the following:
You will undertake work experience to help you decide on a vocational direction and to gain experience to include in your Curriculum Vitae. Learners with an EHCP or S.E.N. will be supported by our Workplace Coordinator. After qualifications, work experience is the most important thing employers look for.
