BOOST Life Skills operates across every county in the UK delivering soft skills training to schools, colleges and business. Based on experience, our view of the world is that these skills make the attendees more confident, more employable and better prepared for work experience, apprenticeships, the work place or further education. Perhaps BOOST could support you with developing your people? Our training mechanisms are all very flexible based on your requirement - please see our website for more details. BOOST is a business and yes, it comes with a small cost per head, but we are a very small business with very little overheads, therefore our cost model is very good value. The high quality training allows young adults or those in the workplace to better understand how to optimise their potential across social interaction, sport, interview preparation, entrance and key exams, work experience and placement, part-time and full-time work. We know that academic studying allows you to develop hard skills, the specific technical skills you need to do your job effectively. While these are the achievements you’ll list on your CV, today’s employers seek more than this with more importance being placed on life and soft skills – personal attributes that enable you to interact well with other people. In most jobs, technical skills alone are not enough to be effective. All careers require at least some life and soft skills to make the hard skills valuable. Soft skills are more challenging to develop, since they have little to do with knowledge or expertise, but are closely linked with a person’s character. It takes conscious effort, ongoing practice, and a commitment to self-development to improve your soft skills. Hard skills may look impressive on your CV, but the soft skills are what will set you apart from the many candidates who have similar expertise to you.
