7. OUTCOMES
7.1 It is anticipated that 50 to 60 participants will
pass through the project, 70 per cent of whom will achieve either
employment or further education outcomes. (Based on similar local
ILM schemes—Groundwork etc.)
7.2 By the end of the two-year period the organisation
will have established a recruitment agency role for local builders
to access qualified workers or trainees either on a permanent
or a job rotation basis. This reputation will be enhanced by the
focus on quality of training provided.
7.3 The project will provide added value to mainstream
funding by levering in a higher proportion of Objective 1 and
private sector funding.
7.4 The project will create a work ethic within the client
group who will be willing to participate by being guaranteed a
wage in excess of their benefit allowance with a built in "no
penalty" clause.
