Employability Award

SQA Employability Award Dundee

Who is it for?

This is an SQA qualification open to anyone interested or looking to move into employment.

What is covered?

It has 3 units covering: applications, CVs, employer and employee expectations, behaviour in the workplace, interview techniques and job advert analysis. The units can be taken at Level 3 or 4, depending on the individual.

What can I gain?

An SQA qualification, and skills that will help you search and apply for jobs, and increase your chances of securing employment.

What do our learners say?

I gained so much confidence in the short space of time while doing this award.

I gained employment for the first time in the UK after completing the course.

I now know how to write a supporting statement for my applications.

I was impressed seeing my skills and knowledge laid out on paper in my CV – such a confidence boost.

When are the classes?

This course runs in 6 week blocks throughout the year. It is usually run as part of our GREAT Programme, but can be delivered independently on request.

Contact Alison on alison@diwc.co.uk for further information and upcoming course dates.
