How we can help

Our training courses are designed to help build students’ confidence, assertiveness and give them independent living skills. NLN offer supports from psychologists and one-on-one coaching in order to help students learn to be the best that they can be.
Job-Seeking Skills
Vocational Training Courses include job-specific modules to help students learn job-seeking skills such as CV writing and Interview Skills.
Work Placements
Each of our vocational training courses include a work placement to give students the chance to gain real-life skills, on-the-job training and valuable experience in a job that interests them.

Unlike other learning centres, at NLN we offer continuous intake. That means that students don’t have to start a course in September or January, instead they can start with us when they are ready to.

At times students may not know which course is the right one for them. We offer students an opportunity to trial courses for a couple of weeks before committing to them.
