ABOUT LIFEWORKS
Lifeworks is a programme developed to help ex-servicemen and women back into employment.
COURSE OVERVIEW
Our 4 day courses are held both across the country and virtually, ensuring our skills and expertise reach every corner of the UK. Including:
• Coaching for change – covering how to navigate new situations and make them work for you
• CV building and writing – how to showcase skills
• Completing application forms – how to demonstrate interest
• In-depth interview preparation – managing nerves and difficult questions
• Recruitment cycle – to help better understand the processes
• Mock interview and feedback – with a specific industry and an experienced recruiter with feedback
• Vocational assessment by a trained assessor – specialist assessment tools to help determine what is best for the individual
Lifeworks has a team of highly skilled support staff, assessors, and trainers with many years of experience in helping those with close links to the Armed Forces back into employment or training.
AFTER THE COURSE
After attending a course, the Lifeworks team are still here to support. We’ll be in contact at regular intervals and available to help in any way we can. Whether it’s an informal chat to learn about your progress, or if you need a hand with a job application, we remain on-hand to help.
WHO IS IT FOR?
No matter the military affiliation, how long served, or current circumstances; whether you have served in the Navy, Army or RAF, Lifeworks is here to help you reach your career goals. Ex-servicemen and women are all eligible for help.
HOW MUCH DOES IT COST?
The courses are free as they are funded by organisations keen to assist us in providing support to those we help.
So far this year we have run courses in Portsmouth, Preston, Burnley, Llandudno, East Kilbride, Abingdon, Norwich, Norwich, Belfast and Inverness with Saltash, Cardiff, Darlington and Liverpool yet to come! There are two courses (at least) per month – one at the RBLI Village in Aylesford, Kent and one elsewhere.
There are also remote and modular versions of the Lifeworks programme available to delegates.
