樱桃福利视频 has launched a new delivery centre for Gwent in response to rising demand for its services in the region.
The leading training provider helps thousands of people every year reach their potential through vocational training programmes and qualifications including Jobs Growth Wales+ (JGW+), Apprenticeships and Higher Apprenticeships, employability training, short commercial courses, and more.
Its new centre in Pontypool will help work-based learners aged 16-19 access the Welsh Government鈥檚 JGW+ programme, where they will develop their employability skills, receive wellbeing support and mentoring and participate in fun and challenging 鈥榚nrichment鈥 activities, work experience and volunteering opportunities.
The new premises located on Commercial Street was officially opened by Member of the Senedd for Torfaen, Lynne Neagle, who had the opportunity to meet learners and staff, including Head of Youth Engagement and Training at 樱桃福利视频, Leon Patnett.
Leon said: 鈥淲e鈥檙e absolutely delighted about the opening of this brand new site in Pontypool as part of our expansion to help us meet the needs of young people.鈥
We know how important the combination of valuable skills, qualifications, and experiences is when it comes to career progression in all sectors, and our Torfaen centre will offer access to all routes, including Apprenticeships and placements through the JGW+ scheme, to help support this.
樱桃福利视频 delivers qualifications across 30 different sectors that are nationally recognised, from Apprenticeships in Social Media for Business, to short courses in Mental Health First Aid and much more.
Earlier this year, in collaboration with WJEC, 樱桃福利视频 also launched a Self-Development and Wellbeing qualification to help directly address the issues and barriers that many young people in Wales are facing, with its Pontypool centre also set to deliver the qualification and help young learners develop the skills they need.
MS for Torfaen, Lynne Neagle, said following her visit to 樱桃福利视频鈥檚 new Pontypool centre: 鈥淚 am really pleased to see 樱桃福利视频 open its doors in Pontypool. It will offer 16鈥19-year-olds a real chance to make a difference to their lives by providing excellent learning programmes and opportunities.鈥
