A confidence building advisor training
Welfare to Work organisations, charities, Housing Associations and social enterprises have many experienced advisors when it comes to employment. However, often these advisors have some gaps when talking to participants about self-employment options. This can be in the areas of legal and tax, benefits, business planning and signposting to funders and other specialist organisations.
To meet these needs, Enterprise Exchange have developed a comprehensive Employment Advisor Training Programme which can be over 1 or 2 days, to give advisors the confidence to have that initial conversation and be able to support their participants effectively.
We work with organisations such as Shaw Trust, Maximus, Prospects, G4S, Hyde Housing Association and National Careers Service.

"Excellent course - interesting and very useful. A really fantastic training session. I feel I have learnt a lot. Now feel more confident about talking to customers about self-employment." "Very informative, engaging & very insightful. I have definitely benefited from today’s session.

"Phil is one of the strongest and most passionate advocates of social enterprise that I have come across. He and his company do the most incredible work with the more vulnerable and disadvantaged members amongst our society and – having worked very briefly with some of them myself – I have seen the impact his work has. If you get the chance to work with Phil, please don’t let it pass you by." AG, Managing Director Operation Enterprise Ltd Brighton |
"Enterprise Exchange has proven to be more than them simply fulfilling a contract, as the directors bring so much more with them. Their connections within the business community, their understanding of the challenges faced by offenders and their commitment to supporting those with whom they work, both inside and outside the prison, bring valuable resources to the partnership working within HMP Lewes." JO, Resettlement Partnership Manager HMP Lewes (Retired) |
