Supported internships are specifically aimed at young people aged 16 to 24 who have an EHCP (Education, Health and Care Plan), who want to move into employment and need extra support to do so. They usually last for fixed, limited period time but offer essential real-life experience that is highly sought after by employers.
If a learner is doing a supported internship we can assist both them and the employer to secure support from the Department for Work and Pensions’ Access to Work Scheme where needed.
