F – Factor  (Functional/Survival Skills)

Is having good grades enough to survive in the ever-developing competitive workforce?

The rate of unemployment in this country has risen by over 200,000 in the past three months (24th January 2010) alone; bringing the total of unemployed people to 2.47 million – the highest it has been in over 14 years.

Our Survival Skills workshop aims to combat those factors by providing young people with the skills and abilities they need to operate confidently, effectively and independently in their lives, communities and place of work. Survival Skills equips young people with the following functional skills: effective interview skills, presentation skills, effective communication skills, critical & independent thinking skills, ways developing transferable skills and a global business preceptive.
