PET-Xi upskilling Peterborough Residents
PET-Xi’s delivery of IXION’s ESF Employability p rogramme is proving to be a resounding success. Since early 2019, hundreds of unemployed residents have benefited from these wide-ranging, confidence-boosting sessions and gained a Level 2 ITQ qualification as well! With a current achievement rate of 94.6% and over 50% of learners moving on to further training or into e mployment, everyone is delighted. “I would like to let you know ‘Get Into IT’ with PET-Xi is the best provision I have ever seen here. All the customers I put through finished their programme and gave really good feedback.” Tony, Job Centre Advisor
“This has really boosted my confidence. I have got back into employment thanks to this programme, it really was first class.” Alan, Learner “This course was just fantastic. It was an opportunity to meet new people and to get out of the house! It has helped with my confidence massively.” My IAG employment coach supported me to create a new CV, sent it to one of her contacts and I was offered an interview the next day. I have now secured employment with that company. Thank you so much for all your help.” Slyvia, Learner
“The trainers made me feel really comfortable in the learning environment. The bit where I created a professional CV led to a successful job offer, which has increased my confidence and I’m now able to provide for my family.” Ashley, Learner
