if a Gap year is being taken before starting further education
or work. There are employment opportunities with SCOEC,
holiday companies in the Mediterranean and further afield.
There are opportunities to continue working at SCOEC during
college holidays. Working as an instructor will develop
a range of skills that will be useful when starting work.
Work experience Young people from school or college can
undertake work experience at SCOEC. Interested students
should apply in writing giving the dates of the work experience
and details of any relevant experience. An interview will
be arranged before the work experience.
