Bootcamps

A start date for the new approach to delivering bootcamps in partnership with Leicester City Council will look to be launched from August 2025. The bootcamp is designed in a similar way to a qualification with the benefit of picking and choosing units for the appropriate business sector.

The new approach we have taken needs to be proven to work so we only have 12 spaces available currently in this pilot stage, but if successful we would look to ask for further funding.

 

What are skills bootcamps?

Skills Bootcamps are flexible training courses for adults aged 19 and over. They last up to 16 weeks and offer participants a job opportunity on completion.

Skills Bootcamps can support both unemployed and upskilling of existing staff.

To find out more about the national programme and skills bootcamps go to the Department for Education website.
