Central YMCA previously delivered Early Years Professional Skills Bootcamps,
a programme designed to equip learners with the knowledge, skills, and confidence required to work within the early years sector. The programme was delivered as part of the Government’s Lifetime Skills Guarantee and focused on supporting learners to develop sector-specific skills and progress into employment or further training.
The Skills Bootcamps also supported employers in the sector by helping to build a robust pool of prospective employees ready to enter early years settings in full-time employment or progress through accelerated learning pathways. Upon completion of the programme, participants were supported to engage with employers through structured guidance and progression opportunities.
Central YMCA worked closely with Norfolk, Suffolk, and Hertfordshire County Councils to deliver this programme, tailoring delivery to support learners at different stages of their early years careers. This included individuals new to the sector, those changing careers, and learners seeking to progress into early years roles.
Participants on the Early Years Professional Skills Bootcamps benefited from:
Speaking at the time of delivery, Monique Clements, Central YMCA’s Director of Education and Training, highlighted the organisation’s commitment to supporting education, health, and wellbeing through skills development and accessible training opportunities aligned with sector needs.
Central YMCA continues to deliver a wide range of education and training programmes across health, wellbeing, and professional development. Current opportunities can be found within the Education and Training section of our website.
