Work Preparation

Work Preparation is tailored to suit your needs, but it usually involves doing short unpaid work experience with a local employer.

Work Preparation can help you get ready for work. We will work out what you need from the programme, and we can offer you a range of support to help you find and stay in work.

There is no set way that Work Preparation works. Depending on your needs, it can last from a few hours to a number of weeks.

On average, most people who take part in Work Preparation are involved for between 6 and 13 weeks.

Can I take part in Work Preparation?

You may be able to take part in Work Preparation if you have a disability or health condition, and you are in touch with a personal adviser.

You can be in work, out of work and claiming benefit or not claiming benefit.
