Catch 22 are running a FREE pre-apprenticeship and pre-employment programme called Digital Edge in partnership with Microsoft. This programme may be of interest to anyone who wants to work in the Digital and Tech sector.
The programme runs for 2 days a week for 4 weeks and is done completely remotely using Microsoft Teams, starting Jan 11th. After completing the programme, they will then have access to 1-2-1 career coaching.
Over the 4-week programme, the cohort will get vital employability skills training, insight into the digital and technology sector whilst doing practical activities and gain confidence in applying for digital apprenticeships or entry-level IT roles, with the view of launching their career.
Requirements:-
- Interested in Digital and Technology
- Must be aged between 18 & 45
- Access to laptop/computer and headphones
- Based in Manchester, Liverpool or Birmingham
- Not in Education or Employment
The programme covers things like the different type of tech roles available in the industry, the different tech jargon terms, how to tailor a cover letter and CV to these specific positions and we even do group projects. Alongside our facilitators, we do have a guest speaker from Tech Apprenticeships providers, and Microsoft staff also speak to the group about the tech industry.
