We are proud to support Ronnie Wilson MBE and First Step Trust (“FST”) who are delivering skills for work in the motoring industry with the use of digital technology. FST provides a safe learning space that enables learners who live with various mental health conditions, anxiety, and/or low literacy capability to develop confidence, skills, and competence in a practical workplace environment.
The training, which has been developed by FST with support from Halfords, incorporates VR (virtual reality), video, AI (artificial intelligence) and other vocational technologies to enable members to learn new skills, despite the challenges they may face processing written instructions. We have started to run trial placements in our garages for members who have learnt skills through FST and are committed to working further to make training accessible to all.
