Skills Development Service

The units were exactly what I was hoping they would be- informative and giving a direction for personal improvement. I can say with confidence that I have started to work on developing the skills I was previously lacking. I can already see the difference in my daily life after attending the courses.

The Skills Development Service (SDS) provides a range of courses aimed at building your confidence, improving your transferable skills and increasing your employability potential. Certificates are awarded for successful completion of courses and are highly regarded by employers.

We have made some enhancements in our programme for 2017-18 which includes a new award entitled Certificate of Personal Development. This largely supercedes the Certificates of Professional Development in Communication, Personal Effectiveness and Leadership and the Progression and Well-being Certificate and provides you with more freedom of choice in working towards certification. We are also introducing a new Diploma "Apprenticeship" Award for students involved in Leadership roles either in a paid or voluntary capacity.

We are very pleased to be supported by:
