The job market is really hard. The only thing employers want is experience but if you don’t have any where does that leave you? that’s where we can help, if you have longed to be a hairdresser then this could be a stepping stone towards your chosen career.
WHAT IS A TRAINEESHIP?
Traineeships are an opportunity to gain real work experience, job skills and improve your English and Maths, if needed.
Our programme lasts 16 weeks and is tailored to your individual career needs. You will gain experience in hairdressing from two key areas, attending training 1 day a week at the hair academy this will include hairdressing skills and knowledge, employability skills, CV writing, interview skills and Maths and English if needed. You will also have a great opportunity of training in a local salon selected by us, either 1 or 2 days a week gaining an in salon high quality work experience placement. Total working hours for academy and salon work will be between 16-24 hours a week depending on the salons requirements.
This will all help build your skills and confidence and ultimately support you to go on to an apprenticeship placement.
IS A TRAINEESHIP RIGHT FOR ME?
Traineeships are ideal if you are motivated to get a job but lack the skills and experience that employers are looking for.
You are unemployed, or work fewer than 16 hours a week and have little work experience or you are aged 16-24 and are qualified below a level 3
There are no costs to you as the course is government funded
The work will be unpaid, but you will be gaining valuable skills to further your career
A TRAINEESHIP IS PROBABLY NOT RIGHT FOR YOU IF:
You already have the skills and experience needed to find an apprenticeship or work.
You are 25 years old or older
You are already employed
