Have you just finished a course at College?

If so, you can give your career a boost by taking part in an EU funded project that is being run by Gecko Programmes.

Gecko Programmes is working in partnership with colleges from Birmingham and our own City of Wolverhampton College.

Gecko has been awarded €1.25 million to fund training and work experience in Spain, Italy and Germany.  If you are selected, your flights, accommodation, training and pocket money (about €90 a week) are all provided.

Gecko is looking to recruit 60 people to go to Italy and Spain for either three or eight weeks.

To be eligible you need to have completed a vocational course with either South and City College Birmingham, Birmingham Metropolitan College, City of Wolverhampton College, Dudley College, Walsall College or Gecko in the last 12 months.  Attendance at a vocational course with Gecko makes you eligible to apply for a work-based learning programme.

Pat Cross, the Director of Gecko said, “we have been offering programmes like these for five years now, but gaining this size of contract, and working in partnership with so many colleges, provides a fantastic opportunity to young people that want to give their careers a boost.  Employers value the confidence and sparkle that young people gain from this experience.  We have so many success stories of young people getting jobs and getting their careers on track when they return to the UK.”
​
If you want to apply or to get more information, you can contact Gecko on 01902 837416, or send an email with your CV and a cover letter to [email protected].
