NHS / LPT Sector Based Work Academy Programme (SWAP) level 1

This is a four-week programme for anyone (19+) who is interested in working in the NHS. This will not only equip you with the right qualifications but will also offer support when completing applications for current Leicestershire Partnership Trust (LPT) and wider NHS vacancies in business administration, health care assistant, customer services, catering, estates, contact centre, facilities and estates, IT, HR and cleaning. This programme includes a wide range of learning opportunities that support you by achieving nationally recognised qualifications including Health Safety, Equality, Diversity and inclusion, customer service, as well as employability skills to support your future career e.g. interview skills. This is an amazing opportunity for anyone with or without the experience of working in the NHS to understand what careers and training opportunities are available and gain support to find the right career for you. During the programme there will be opportunities to speak to colleagues from the NHS and get lots of helpful hints on tips on searching and applying for position. This programme is delivered in partnership with Leicestershire Partnership Trust (LPT) and is offered at regular intervals during 50 weeks of the year, including non-term times (closed two weeks of Christmas). You will need to be committed to complete the whole four weeks, Monday – Friday (9 am – 4 pm).
