Vocational Training

If there is a particular area you want to work in but you don't have the skills or experience you need, starting vocational training can be one of the best ways to improve your employability and gain the confidence and experience you'll need to land the job.

If you are unemployed, you may be able to benefit from free vocational training as part of the Haringey Guarantee. Currently the Haringey Guarantee includes projects through which you can train to work in the security industry (Security Industry Authority Employment Support), and more.

If you do not meet the criteria for the Haringey Guarantee, Haringey Adults Learning Service offer a range of vocational courses. You may also find the right course at the College of Haringey, Enfield and North East London (CONEL). You can reach the CONEL website by clicking through from the external links section below.
