Bridging Course in Foundation Skills
Training for ages 15-18 years


About the Programme
This training programme is designed for people who need upskilling in foundation skills before starting a vocational programme such as computing, electronics, printing, airconditioning, etc. It will include training in English and communication skills as well as maths and study skills.

  • This course is taught by a specialist tutor who will tailor-make a course that meets each student's learning needs.
  • Some of the areas of study may include writing, reading and maths, as well as communication skills, work and study skills, self management, interpersonal and social skills, personal care skills, occupational health and safety, and business information processing.
  • Students may combine their foundations skills training with a vocational course in the afternoons. For example, they can learn about developing websites, how to build and manage a computer network, develop business administration skills, or explore electronic devices and systems. Or, they can learn trade skills such as how to run a printing press and qualify as a Printing Assistant, or undertake pre-apprenticeship training in air-conditioning and refrigeration.
  • The key is flexibility - we will assess each student's needs and create an individualised programme.
