WYCC is now actively seeking partners to express interest to act as a sub-contracting delivery partner for the following ESIF Tender Call “Skills Support for In Work Claimants” in Leeds City Region.

More specifically the WYCC will deliver: - Mentoring, support and advice (through one to ones or via group sessions where a number of individuals are in the same company) for people who are employed or under-employed, and in receipt of means tested benefits to help them understand their options for progression with their current employer or elsewhere; - Signposting to funded support for training (e.g. Further Education/Higher Education loans); - Accredited and non-accredited training to help individuals improve their skills, ultimately leading to higher earnings and reduced benefit dependency; - Support for Literacy - including ESOL and financial literacy - to address the wider social inclusion agenda, numeracy and ICT skills; - An employer brokerage role – linking participants with employers.
