Young People: Employment without training

Duration: 20 June 2005 to 15 July 2005

During this Theme we explored issues which lead young people to enter employment without training. This exploration will provide the basis for some ongoing research which will draw together the Connexions services in the region to develop a better understanding of the nature of this issue and how to tackle it.

Read SLIM's Bulletin that introduces this theme.

The report and Executive Summary are now available online.

THEME ACTIVITIES
SLIM Learning Themes bring practitioners, researchers and policy makers together face to face and on-line to exchange ideas, practice and details of what works, where and why. During Theme SLIM researchers:

identify, summarise and contextualise research for participants

interview policy makers

identify projects demonstrating good practice and write these up as case studies and

facilitate an on-line discussion

Resources will be highlighted during an on-line discussion and made available through our website at www.swslim.org.uk.

This Theme will culminate in a workshop bringing together participants to reflect on the findings and discussion and to develop recommendations for our Final Report. This will be distributed widely in the region

Resources will be highlighted via the on-line discussion and made available through the buttons on this page.

Research briefs, summarising our research and findings will be available.
