Its aim is to improve employability by building confidence, skills and qualifications for work. The programme could also lead to a paid work placement providing an excellent opportunity to further develop skills and really get your career back on track.

Community Involvement and Support (The Hubs)

Employability South is designed to offer support to individuals from the local communities of South Belfast, whether you are from Sandy Row, Taughmonagh, Woodstock, Lower Ormeau Road or beyond there are local information points to find out how to get involved.

Our local information points (Hubs) will serve as a key element of our project, either by assisting you with an initial referral to the programme or through provision of one to one support from one of our mentors or even by hosting training and development activities during the programme our use of the hubs will make access to this unique opportunity easier for participants.
