Career Connect has been commissioned by Knowsley Advice and Guidance Service to launch a new careers programme to help young Knowsley residents aged 16-18 to enter training, education and employment.

Called ‘Knowsley Intervention Project, this 12-week programme is tailored to the needs of each participant with a mix of one-to-one support and group work, including a weekly session every Tuesday at Our Place centre in Huyton.
Each programme runs for 6 months and aims to reduce the number of NEET young people (not in education, employment or training) in the Knowsley local authority area. Course participants will work with a qualified careers coach to draw up a weekly plan of activities tailored to their specific needs. The programme will also include wellbeing and resilience development training to help young people overcome personal barriers and challenges and achieve positive and lasting career outcomes.
If you are (or know) a Knowsley resident aged 16-18 who is NEET and would like to find out more about Knowsley Intervention Project, contact Andy Whitty at Career Connect on Tel: 07423 684 464 or email [email protected].
