Testimonials
I would recommend this course to everybody it has really opened my eyes for what it can do for all their learners. To have 100% excellent feedback and people going into work just after 4 weeks, people who were furthest away from the labour market, seeing their potential on the course is amazing and it's all down to their commitment and hard work. If it wasn't for this course these people would have not gone into work as quickly as they did I cannot wait until the next one…

Instead they are receiving training whilst in employment that will hopefully launch the start of a longer lasting and rewarding career

The final presentations an participants deliver are a testament to their hard work and determination to succeed in gaining employment and we have many examples of people securing employment after completing a Returneeship course

I know the EA and work coach teams in Ipswich I've been completely inspired by this project and I personally cannot thank them enough for making this exercise successful
