Occupational Traineeship in textiles and fashion manufacturing: Starting in February 2022 |
Are you an employer in Greater Manchester or Lancashire?
UKFT has developed a new occupational traineeship to encourage much needed young people into the fashion and textiles manufacturing sector. The programme has been developed in partnership with employers, the Department for Education and Local Authorities, and aims to identify candidates and make them ‘job ready’ for sewn products and textiles manufacturing roles.
Candidates will be aged 16 to 24 years. They will complete a six-week course which includes a minimum of 70-hours work experience, a Level 1 qualification covering the basics in sewing or textiles manufacturing and a job or apprenticeship interview.
UKFT has developed and accredited the programme, has the means to recruit the trainees and the training providers are in place.
