Training for returners

 

T161: Return to science, engineering and technology 

A ten week short course with The Open University.
 
This course is for anyone who has previously worked in the fields of science, engineering and technology and who wants to return to work (employed or self employed). It will help you:
  • look at what you really want from work
  • evaluate your skills and experience
  • blow the dust off your CV
  • make new contacts and revive existing ones
  • find out who is offering the kind of work you want to do
  • achieve that all-important work-life balance
The course is part time and on-line, allowing flexibility around your other commitments. It has been developed by the Open University with support from UKRC and funding from the Department of Innovation, Universities and Skills (DIUS) and ESF Equal. You can find out about the course and book a place here.
 
The October 2008 course has a closing date of 19th September 2008. The UKRC is able to offer bursaries. Women living in England, Scotland and Wales should check here for information:
 
If you live in Northern Ireland or the Republic of Ireland, WITS (Women in Technology & Science) is offering a limited number of bursaries for women studying the T161 course. Please go to www.witsireland.com/re-enter or email re-enter@witsireland.com  for more information.
