Certificates of achievement have been presented to young unemployed people who have completed the Belfast Unemployed Resource Centre Youth Initiative Scheme.
The eight week project aims to help 16 to 24-year-olds identify and overcome personal and other barriers in the way of training, further education and employment, such as apprenticeships.
Presenting the certificates, Employment Minister Stephen Farry: “Initiatives such as this provide support, development and timely intervention to successfully help the participants overcome significant and often perceived insurmountable barriers which can prevent them taking up opportunities in learning and employment.”
