For Educators
Placer delivers our Work Readiness programme in partnership with schools, colleges, universities and youth unemployment projects. Our programme ensures young people will be more effective in work experience and placements during education, such as on a T-Level placement, and also stand out with employers looking to recruit work-ready talent.
Work Readiness Programme for Educators
CPD-accredited Training
All our courses are CPD accredited, providing a printable certificate for every course completed.
This provides a competitive edge where one is needed, for example a job interview or T Level placement.
CPD can also set individuals apart in the job market, many candidates vying for particular roles often hold similar fundamental qualifications.
If you are interested in our courses, we can provide you with a free trial to access all the courses and content to help you design a programme with us, tailored for your learners.
When a student has completed at least ten CPD-accredited work readiness online courses, they will graduate with a digital and verifiable certificate from Placer Skills Academy, great for sharing on social media and with potential employers!
If we are also providing our on-site workshops, we deliver these as physical certificates to the students personally.
Personality Assessments
Our insightful personality assessments help students learn more about themselves and their strengths, that helps to better articulate themselves on CVs and in interviews, and to also help them know where to focus their own self-development.
AI Mock Interviews
With our AI interview coach, students can practice unlimited mock interviews with realistic questions, and receive instant, personalised feedback on their answers, body language, and vocal delivery. This helps to improve student confidence and communication skills to increase their chances for being hired.
On-site Workshops
We can deliver up to two on-site work readiness workshops for young people with our partners.
The first workshop focusses on meeting the students, understanding their aspirations, helping them to understand the importance of work readiness, and then onboarding them to start their first CPD-accredited courses in the workshop, often resulting in them receiving and celebrating their first certificates!
The second workshop starts with awarding their certificate of completion for the CPD-accredited training courses, followed by training that includes preparation for the recruitment process, assessment centre preparation, delivery of our psychometric personality assessments, and setting the students up with our AI Mock Interview platform.
Physical workshops combined with CPD-accredited training, psychometric personality assessments, and AI mock interviews combine to deliver a high value programme of work readiness for our partners and their students.
