This is an employment programme for young people with SEND or Autism who are motivated to work. Usually students have been in further education for one or two years before progressing on to this course. The programme aims wherever possible to support you to transition into paid employment. It will also support the development of independence skills in preparation for adult life.
This is a 14-week course and you will spend six weeks in training to prepare you for working at Hinkley Point C. You will then undertake an 8-week work placement within Hinkley Point C or with one of their partners.Supported Employment Job Coaches will support you to be matched to the right work placement and gain job coaching.
You will be required to take the CITB Health and Safety Environment test as well as a HPC Induction programme.

College hours will be 9:30am – 3:30pm. Placement hours will be confirmed with the employer.

We are hosting a HPC Supported Traineeship Information Evening on Wednesday 8 May, 5:30pm – 7pm at our Bridgwater Campus.
Following an initial assessment to establish your starting point, you will set targets for all aspects of your development and be assessed throughout in partnership with the employer. Assessment is through a portfolio of evidence including photographs, practical and written assessments. Staff also observe you in lessons and on work placement. Your progress will be monitored using these personalised targets through a learner journey. If not already achieved, you will be entered into English and/or maths qualifications at the appropriate level. You will attend English and maths lessons every week and complete an exam at a suitable time of the year.
On successful completion of the programme, you are prepared to enter the workplace.
