​Supported Internships

Supported internships offer an excellent way to for young people with a learning disability or autism to explore employment options. They are for people who really want to get a full time job at the end. 

Internships are a type of study programme specifically aimed at young people aged 16 to 24 who have an EHC plan, and who want to move into employment and need extra support to do so.

Over 70% of people get a paid job at the end of their internship.

Supported internships offer

• 5 days week Programme from about 9.00- 4.00
• 2 or 3 different placements at different locations during the year
• A work focused programme of study
• Support from a job coach and tutor
• Ongoing support to help get a paid job

On graduations, the young people are supported to look for work and then to learn the job and settle into their new workplace.
