6 Groundwork Prince s Trust Team Programme The Team programme is a life changing personal development course. Team members take part in work experience, qualifications, practical skills, community projects and an exciting residential week. More than 70% of unemployed participants go on to jobs, training or education within three months of completing this course. It s a worthwhile course to do. I gained many qualifications that helped me to get a job that I ve always wanted. Thank-you Groundwork.

We re also supporting VPA placements in other local organisations. I gained lots of classroom experience, which was vital for my PGDE application. It was a very rewarding experience and one that I would recommend to any graduate.

Yeah the course was a great help, the team working question came up and the strengths and weaknesses one as well, and with the interview tips I got I smashed it. They said it was the best interview by far, so I can t thank you enough.
