KD came to GL11 job club for support in finding a course to help her gain a qualification. Her daughter is due to start school next year and she would then have requirements to return to work. 

In preparation for this she wanted to complete a childcare qualification so she could look for employment in a nursery.

With our support KD signed up for an online Level 2 qualification in childcare.  We then found out that she would be completing the course on her smart phone.  This would have been quite difficult and taken more time on such a small display.  We have been able to loan her a laptop through GL11’s digital inclusion.

KD is progressing well with the course and having the laptop is also helping her older daughter complete her homework. She is also learning valuable IT skills that will support her when looking for employment.
