Employability Fund
Have you left school and not sure of what you would like to do or if you have the right qualifications? Isle Work may be a great choice for you as the programme could give you a weekly allowance of £55; SCQF credit rated pre-employment / personal development / core skill provision of at least 18 SCQF credit points at Level 3 above; Life Skills; and Work Experience.
The Employability Fund Programme works in partnership between Comhairle Nan Eilean Siar, Cothrom, and Lews Castle College UHI. The fund is supported by Skills Development Scotland. The programme aims to provide every eligible participant with an individual programme of guidance and support that will enable and encourage progression to sustained employment, employment with training (including Modern Apprenticeship), or further education.
