Access Works

Matching local businesses with employment-ready candidates
GET IN TOUCH »
It is hard to find the perfect recruit for your business.
 
Your advertised roles might attract interest from lots of candidates but not from those with the skills you need.

​Access Training recognises that employers need a helping hand to attract the right candidates, and that learners need access to the right skills.
Picture
Our aptly named Access Works programme helps businesses find and recruit better candidates.

It is fully-funded under the Adult Skills Fund (ASF) and offers employers the opportunity to take part in Sector-based Work Academy Programmes (SWAPs), which offer flexible tailored training via short, usually two-week, courses. 

​The Access Works programme has received a further boost following the news that Access Training has been selected as a delivery partner for Nottingham City Council’s £8.6 million share of the UK Shared Prosperity Fund (UKSPF). The project will be delivered under UKSPF's ‘People and Skills’ theme, and will commence in April 2024.

Employers have the opportunity to weave their particular requirements into the SWAP training programme, so that individuals who go on to join their company are more prepared for the role in question, e.g. in areas such as telephone techniques, customer service and health and safety. They can go on to recruit, at no cost, from a pool of candidates who have shown commitment towards their own personal development and in a particular sector or role.
Who benefits?
  • Employers in the East Midlands who are looking to recruit for a number of roles within their business.
  • Individuals aged 19+ who are unemployed or in receipt of a low wage.
  • Referring partners such as Job Centre Plus, recruitment agencies, housing associations and other partners who are working to improve the skills and employability of individual clients.
How does it work?
For Employers
✓ You provide us with information about the positions you’re looking to fill.

✓ We work with you to tailor the programme accordingly, whether that be customer service skills, telephone techniques, team building, or sector-specific training like a CSCS card.

✓ We run a short (usually two-week) training programme.

✓ You have the opportunity to address the candidates during the programme, and explain what you’re looking for.

✓ You offer interviews to all the candidates, in order to support them with their interviewing skills.

✓ You have free and ready access to a pool of potential recruits who understand the skills and behaviours needed to succeed in your business, and who have already committed to their development.

For Referring Partners 
✓ You provide us with your most suitable clients looking to improve their Maths, English or vocational skills. 

✓ We identify and deliver the most appropriate training for those clients to increase their skills and help them become more employment ready.

​✓ You improve the skills and employability of your clients, improving their chances of securing an apprenticeship or job, at the same time supporting local employers to fill their skills gaps.
