Skill Force
Skill Force works in schools to deliver skills-based courses in years 10 and 11, to young people who are low achievers, and are at high risk of dropping out and then remaining out of education, employment and training.
Courses combine classroom learning with outdoor activities, and are delivered largely by ex-Armed Forces personnel. In 2006/07, Skill Force worked with over 6,000 young people, and at least 84% went on to further education, training or employment immediately after finishing the course.
