  • Employability & Soft Skills Programme
The Employability & Soft Skills Programme offers accredited training to help low-income young women, aged 16-25, prepare for the workplace. Delivered in post-16 educational settings and community settings across London, the Goldstar Skills Programme covers self-awareness, job preparation, communication, ethics, transitioning to work, and remote working. Course content is regularly updated based on feedback from students, educators, and trainers.

  • Train the Trainers
The Train the Trainers programme certifies local women as Goldstar Facilitators, advancing their careers while building a skilled team to connect with learners. This initiative boosts local employment and is being streamlined into a more compact format for greater efficiency.
  • Healthy Relationships
The Healthy Relationships course was created in response to requests from Goldstar Trainers and local schools. Designed for upper secondary students, it builds on modules from the Goldstar’s programme covers key topics such as communication, setting healthy boundaries, fostering empathy, and recognising warning signs in relationships.
  • In partnership with Ingeus (London), a DWP provider, we piloted a programme to help young women secure jobs within six months of graduating our training programme. Building on its success, we launched a Community Volunteer Mentoring Scheme, connecting young women with local business owners and employers for tailored advice, guidance, and support during their first year of employment.
  • We collaborate with community organisations, youth groups, and seminaries across London, forging connections with local authorities such as Hackney Council and participating in initiatives like the London Youth Forum and GLA’s Adult Education Budget programme.
  • We also work with organisations like Ingeus and plan to engage others such as Maximus and Serco. Additionally, we partner with local businesses to secure work placements, apprenticeships, and interview opportunities for trainees and graduates, ensuring long-term sustainability and self-sufficiency. These collaborations keep our work rooted at a grassroots level, with input from all key stakeholders.
  • We run an informal apprenticeship programme with over five organisations to train new employees and offer hot-desking opportunities in our office, providing young women with a supportive work environment, collaboration opportunities, and additional guidance.
