Within last year's report, it was noted that we had been successful in securing a contract with the DWP which focused on
short non-accredited training for young people. NLRCo is the management agent for this contract and the two partners
for the delivery was the VNC and the Florrie. The project was granted an extension and we now have a new delivery
partner. The first phase of the project was successful and managed to reach 90% of our targets, in which the candidates
either successfully gained employment, progressed onto an ILM, apprenticeship or further training. The project was
audited by DWP with no issues arising. The project remains ongoing and, due to the challenges presented by the Covid
19 restrictions, our delivery partners are having to think outside of the box, on how they can offer alternative training
opportunities due to not being able to have face to face contact with learners.
