THE CHOSEN EMPLOYABILITY EXPERIENCE™ · PRIMARILY AGES 16–25

Don’t Just Learn About Work. Experience It.

The Chosen Employability Experience™ is an interactive employability development programme designed primarily for young people aged 16–25.

Moving beyond traditional classroom-based learning, TCEE uses realistic workplace simulations, role play, drama, practical challenges, team activities and guided reflection to help participants develop the confidence, behaviours and skills needed for employment.

Participants don’t simply discuss workplace situations. They experience challenges, make decisions, practise communication and learn through doing.

The Chosen Employability Experience: interview role play, team challenges, workplace simulation, and presenting and reflecting. Practical activities develop communication, teamwork, problem-solving, confidence, interview skills and decision-making.

BEYOND EMPLOYABILITY

Development, Training & Mentoring

One-to-one and small-group mentoring, interactive workshops, confidence coaching and school partnerships support young people through education and everyday life. Sessions are adapted to the group; the 16–25 focus applies to TCEE, rather than every TCA service.
