Supported Internships is a study programme which works in partnership with Wiltshire Council, who provide the supported employment element of the programme.

The course provides individualised Study Programmes, designed to equip students with learning difficulties and/or disabilities with the skills they need to secure paid employment.

The Supported Internship will match their long-term career aspirations and fit in with their working capabilities, aiming to prepare each person for employment. This can include working interviews, voluntary work, increased social skills, confidence building, certificates and qualifications, short courses outside of college, open days, interview practice, employer visits and travel training.

Progression onto a supported internship will have been a topic of conversation at the young person’s annual review meeting.
