Employment Training and Skills (ETS) courses provide young people with skills and qualifications they can build on and develop throughout their working life.
In partnership with employers, schools, colleges, and charities, we train and support over 300 young people and their families every year. We provide courses, support, and careers advice, to young people whether they are interested in construction qualifications or a hairdressing apprenticeship.
We work with 15–29-year-olds who are looking to enter employment, working with them on both an individual basis and group basis to find the best employment opportunities in their area and to help prepare them for these opportunities.
Reasons to use Rodeo
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
It searches the market for you
Every day your agent scans the market matching roles against what actually matters to you, not just keywords on a CV.
Only hits
No noise. No "maybe this fits." Just roles with a clear explanation of why they're right — and where to focus when applying.
