Our latest Digital Skills Bootcamp in cloud computing will offer a blended learning model with face to face and online learning at one of our City Hub campuses. Over the course of 10 weeks, these Bootcamps will be delivered free of charge for unemployed or self-employed learners over the age of 19, or at a nominal contribution for employed learners.
At the end of the Skills Bootcamp, learners will have a guaranteed interview and the opportunity to gain employment within an ICT role, progress onto a relevant apprenticeship or, be supported to explore other options to progress in their chosen career.
Skills Bootcamps are a flexible course of up to 16 weeks for adults aged 19 or over that are in work, self-employed, recently unemployed or returning to work after break.
They’re designed to give participants the opportunity to develop their skills in a specific area and fast track into a new job or get ahead with their current employer.
