Training, Advice & Employment

Training and Development

We provide pre-entry English for Speakers of Other Languages (ESOL) training for minority ethnic groups, economically inactive and other unemployed residents in Barking and Dagenham through the “Move On” project. This project is supported by the London Councils European Social Fund (ESF) Co-Financing Programme and delivered in conjunction with Harmony House a local charity and training provider. The advantage of this project is that it reaches the community by providing sessions in community and children’s centres in different parts of the borough and accessible to participants.

This training will equip learners with skills  to progress into further education, training and employment.
