shmuTRAIN Case Study
Check out shmuTRAIN's brilliant work over at the Positive Transitions page, and watch the video clip of Aaron, one of shmuTRAIN's many success stories.
We first started working with Aaron at the beginning of 2012 on our Early Interventions programme in Torry Academy. Aaron then joined our Positive Transitions course starting in January 2013.
shmuTRAIN supported Aaron on and off for almost 3 years; through school, into Positive Transitions and for the few weeks after the course ended.
shmuTRAIN Positive Transitions programme offers a 12-week training course for those aged 16-19 who are not in education, employment or training. This programme encompasses a range of digital media modules which have been developed by SHMU, these modules are used not only to engage young people in a dynamic and different way but also to build employability skills such as communication, research, team work and confidence building. The employability module follows the SQA in Employability with evidence coming from both digital media and employability modules. Trainees completing the course will achieve their SQA.
