Building Futures

LADIES, DO SOMETHING FOR YOU IN 2025!

BUILDING FUTURES IS BACK THIS JANUARY, JOIN US*

Building Futures is a programme developed for women who are looking at a fresh start and would eventually like to return to work. Think of it as your starting point to getting your mojo back and putting yourself first – best of all, you don’t have to figure out ‘what next’ on your own, we’re here to help.

The programme has been designed in conjunction with our partners WOMENSTEC and Women in Business – and we have got lots of options for you. From courses in Self-Development, Becoming a Classroom Assistant, Mentoring, to OCN qualifications and more.

We also have Bursaries available to meet the cost of further training you would like to undertake. And if you’d just like to engage the programme for some mentoring, that’s ok too – we can tailor it to you!

Please contact Justina OR Tracy for a friendly chat about anything that might interest you on the programme or on 028 3083 5764, but please note the eligibility criteria outlined at the bottom of the page.*
