FAQ
Common questions about training in Bermondsey
Do I need prior experience to join a training programme?
No. Most courses listed here are aimed at people with no formal construction background. Employers want motivated local residents; they will train the rest.
Are training programmes free?
The majority are fully funded through S106 developer contributions or the Adult Education Budget. Any cost is stated clearly on the listing.
Will training lead to a job?
Many programmes are designed with a direct employment pathway. Completing a course does not guarantee a job, but it puts you at the front of the queue for roles with partner employers.
Can I apply if I am currently unemployed?
Yes. Most funded programmes actively prioritise unemployed Southwark residents. Some require a Jobcentre Plus referral; again, the listing will say.
