Vocational Training

Since 2004, the council’s Environment and Regeneration department has commissioned a range of vocational training courses across Islington to meet the skills needs of residents and employers.

This current series of training courses have now finished, but we are planning more courses later in the year.

The training will be delivered at different local venues by a range of providers offering personalised advice and guidance, skills training, employment advice and access to job vacancies.

We are keeping a record of people interested in training in any of the sectors listed below, so please get in touch if you want to be included. To be eligible you must live in either Islington or Camden, be over 16, have the right to work in the UK and be looking for employment in any of the following sectors:

• hospitality and catering

• cultural tourism

• childcare

• horticulture

• creative industries

Other courses will include access to sports coaching and community interpreting.

The training is free and aims to improve skill levels, provide qualifications and help people into work.

Crèche and childcare places will also be offered.
