Pre-Employment Newsletter

Other News...

Over the past year, the Pre-Employment Team have been raising their profile in Bristol by delivering face-to-face training courses and attending events to engage new audiences. We've offered a variety of programmes, including HGV Cat C, SIA security, NHS-related training, and more. Our WECA recruitment lead is involved in planning citywide job fairs and regularly visits all Bristol JCPs to promote our courses. Highlights include attending the New Monday event at The Galleries and the Bristol Careers event at the Bristol Beacon, where we showcased Weston College alongside major employers like the NHS and Bristol Airport. At these events, we provided careers advice and ran a workshop covering Adult Training, ESOL, Solutions, Apprenticeships, and Traineeships, showing how learners can progress from entry-level courses to employment.

“I think the course is brilliant, well- structured and a great insight to the NHS”

“I loved my course, two weeks have just flown by!”

“The course is wonderful, thank you!”

In February, we joined the South Bristol Jobs & Apprenticeship Fair and began a weekly residency at Temple Street Job Centre.

“It was excellent for my mental health and wellbeing”

Our UHBW NHS course remains a standout success. Learners attend engaging sessions at the Education Centre to prepare for roles within UHBW, gaining valuable insights into hospital work and application skills. Feedback has been overwhelmingly positive, with learners praising the structure, support, and impact on their wellbeing.

“Five stars, thank you!”

We’re proud of the difference we’re making in the WECA area and look forward to building on this momentum.
