Paul Goggins MP Backs Manchester Airport Academy Relaunch - 11/12/2009 |
 Local MP Paul Goggins recently visited Manchester Airport to back the relaunch of the Manchester Airport Academy.
The Airport Academy project, based at Manchester Airport, is an employment and training programme helping unemployed people living across south Manchester, and in particular Wythenshawe. Students of the Academy are given appropriate training and skills, coached in interview techniques and are helped to find suitable vacancies at the airport. Upon completion of the course each graduate is offered a guaranteed interview with an Airport employer.
Paul Goggins MP said: “In the current competitive job market, some local people have found it difficult to get back into work. Not only does the Manchester Airport Academy offer top class training but it gives a real confidence boost to people who have struggled to find work. The scheme is one of a number of innovative ways in which businesses can work with the local community in order to tackle some of the problems associated with the economic downturn.”
