Access to Work

Want to get into work?

Here at Action Acton we run a number of projects designed to help individuals back to work.

GRASP A project providing basic skills training, (literacy and numeracy) and access to an Information Advice and Guidance worker. Basic Skills training leads to EDEXCEL qualifications, (Level 2) and is achieved via open learning.  An IAG worker will then work with individuals to help identify education, training and employment opportunities and will work out an individual action plan. This service is available to unemployed adult residents of Acton and the surrounding area who have the right to work in the UK.
