Prince’s Trust
If you’re unemployed and between 16 and 25, you can meet new people, gain new skills and train on our Prince’s Trust Team Programmes at New College Lanarkshire campuses in Motherwell, Cumbernauld and Coatbridge.
How it works
Our 12-week personal development programme offers the chance to gain new skills, take a qualification and meet new people.
When you come on board, you’ll be challenged to:
- Take on your own group community project, making a positive difference to your hometown
- Take part in an action-packed residential trip
- Get two weeks’ work experience in an area that you’re interested in
- Develop your English, maths and employability skills.
As part of the course, we also spend some time developing your interview and CV skills to ensure your confidence is sky-high for when taking the next step.
The programme is completely free and won’t affect your Jobseeker’s Allowance.
Subsistence and travel costs will also be covered.
On average, three out of four people who complete the programme go on to employment or further education within three months.
