Unemployed young people

If your son or daughter has left school or college and hasn’t managed to get a job, they may be wondering what to do next. Connexions Personal Advisers (PAs) can help them look at all their options.

It may be that your son/daughter lacks confidence or they may not yet have the skills, qualifications or experience they need to start a job, Apprenticeship or college course. A Foundation Learning course could be just what they are looking for.

Or they may need help with job hunting and applying for jobs.

Your son or daughter can visit their local Connexions Centre and talk to a specially trained Personal Adviser who will be happy to help them.. To see what help is available click on Help at Connexions Centres.

The Work and Training section of the Young People's area of this website also has lots of useful information to help your son or daughter decide what to do next.
