Supported Internship

The Supported Internship is intended to help students with learning difficulties/ disabilities to gain meaningful experience in a real working environment outside the college.

Learners will treat their work placement in exactly the same way as paid employment. They will take on responsibility for their conduct whilst at work and following all health and safety policies in the work place. You will work closely with your progression coach to find the best placement for you and who will support you throughout the year.

Your course could include the following:
