Dear colleagues

 

I hope this email reaches you well.

Over the past 2 years, Refugee Council has worked in partnership with the global technology company, ServiceNow, to support refugees gain employment in the UK IT industry.

ServiceNow is cloud-based platform used across a range of companies – from major brands like PwC and Lloyds Banking Group to smaller tech-start-ups.  The ServiceNow Skills Bootcamp (details below/attached) is all about connecting communities under-represented in the tech sector to land meaningful employment and (re)connect to a digital career in the UK.

We’re really excited to let you know that on 5th January 2023 the next virtual ServiceNow Skills Bootcamp in Data and Service Management will delivered by Northeastern University London. 

What participants will gain:

• A free, 13-week, part-time and flexible online technical Skills Bootcamp delivered by Northeastern University London.
• Ongoing support with job searching and employability skills through a dedicated 1:1 Employment Advisor at Refugee Council.
• Upon successful completion, a guaranteed job interview with an industry-relevant employer.
• Access to complete the ‘ServiceNow Fundamentals Certification’ – an internationally recognised qualification opening up opportunities on the ServiceNow platform.

What we’re looking for:

• The ability to commit to the 13-week bootcamp starting on January 5^th 2023 + attending additional tailored employability skills sessions run by the employment team at Refugee Council.
• A strong commitment to starting or re-starting a career in IT.
• A current Refugee Status + live in England.
• Be 19 years of age or over on 1st September 2022.
• Have a prior level 3 qualification (e.g. A Level, BTEC).
• Computer literate, able to get online.

If you know anyone who would be interested in finding out more and receiving ongoing employability support from Refugee Council, please ask them to complete this expression of interest form. by Tuesday 13^th December.

ServiceNow will be hosting an Information Event on Wednesday 14th December at 16:00 – 17:00 – an opportunity to find out more about the upcoming Skills Bootcamp.
