The Gateway Qualifications Progression suite offers a flexible and responsive range of general and pre-vocational qualifications. The qualifications consist of a range of core units:

  • Career planning
  • Interview skills
  • Searching for a job
  • Communication skills for work
  • Health, safety, and first aid at work
  • Problem-solving in the workplace
  • Health and Safety in the workplace

You will benefit from a wide selection of sector-specific ‘taster’ units, allowing you to explore vocational areas and identify personal preferences before committing to a career path.
