Steps to Employability programme

Clackmannanshire Council, on behalf of the Clackmannanshire Local Employability Partnership (LEP), is looking to commission through No One Left Behind (NOLB) funding, subject to confirmation of funding from Scottish Government, an employability programme for young people with additional support needs from Clackmannanshire to develop the skills and experiences required to progress along the employability pipeline and make realistic career choices and goals.The programme will predominantly target 16 – 19 year olds who are leaving or have left school to a negative or unknown destination and / or those who have fallen out of / not sustained their first positive destination. Some of these young people will have additional support needs and multiple barriers to employment. Although priority will be given to 16 – 19 year olds with additional support needs, consideration may be given to opening up places to other young people aged up to 24 at the discretion of the LEP.
