Cambridge Regional College

This is an action-packed course focused on getting you the skills you need to get a job.

The programme is free to join and you won't lose your benefit. We focus our efforts on those who have struggled at school, been in care, been in trouble with the law, or are long-term unemployed.

Completing the programme will help build your confidence, motivation and enable you to develop new skills and qualifications. All of these things will put you on the right track to getting the job that you really want.

If you are aged 16-25 you could join our Team - a FREE 12-week programme which will help you move on with your life.

Is it for people like me?

The Team Programme is for UK residents aged 16-25 who are unemployed. It's free and will not affect your Jobseeker's Allowance.
