Personal Development Programme

Helping you get where you want to be in life

The Personal Development Programme helps you develop the key skills, attitudes and behaviours that are required to be successful in life and work.  The programme will help you think about, prepare for and secure whatever next step you want to take – whether that’s a job, a higher level course at NHC, an apprenticeship or university.

Each section of The Personal Development Programme focuses on a different aspect of life, it focuses on three themes.

• Healthy living
• Staying safe
• Careers

Sessions are delivered by tutors from your vocational qualification department and by our team of success coaches. They include:

• Group sessions and activities linked to your occupation of choice and more generally about life and work in the UK
• One-to-one support from success coaches to help you reflect on your learning, your progress and your plans
• Trips and visits to help you gain a really good understanding of working life
• Careers talks from people doing a diverse range of jobs to give you a real insight and inspire you
• Exciting opportunities to work in the community
