The award evening helped to highlight young people's positive accomplishments and show the incredible strength and determination that young people have.
Funded by YESIP, an implementing body under the EU programme for Peace and Reconciliation, the aims of the programme are to help young people enter the labour market at part-time or full time level, to better
equip them to play an active role in the work situation and, where possible, to re-engage them in education.
SELB Youth Information Co-ordinator Sarah Muldoon said: “The programme provides an excellent opportunity for young people to
challenge barriers that they are commonly faced with in relation to social skills, confidence, decision-making, assertiveness and personal
development.” Alongside this training, the programme supports and encourages young people to further enhance their employability skills by supporting and
encouraging them to develop and prepare CVs, complete job application forms and develop skills for interviews.
For further information on the programme, which is funded until June
2006, contact Alison on (028) 3752 8681.
