The Belfast City Council Health and Social Care Academies are delivered over a series of 5 day intensive workshops, specifically created to help fast track your way to employment. During the workshops, you will learn the introductory skills to help you adapt quickly to work in your chosen sector. This allows you to find out what each of the various job roles involves to ensure you know what is expected of you as a team member. You will be getting insight into the industry before deciding if it is right for you and accepting a job offer. You will receive specific interview training, before introducing you to a panel of employers for a guaranteed interview and we will also support you with a further six months of ongoing mentorship. This has proven to be very effective in helping participants gain and sustain employment. There is also the possibility of gaining a further qualification, through your employer, if you meet certain criteria. During this academy the learner will attend workshops to develop their knowledge of the underpinning principles, values and requirements to work in the social care industry. This includes: Safeguarding, Infection and prevention control, NISCC Code of conduct and behaviour, delivering care in a person-centred way and communication in a care setting.
