Supported Internship - Bedford Borough (Pathways) - The Bedford College Group

Supported Internship - Bedford Borough (Pathways) is a one-year supported internship for learners who hold an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP).

Learners are supported throughout by a trained job coach and the Pathways to Work team. Support includes sourcing and applying for roles, building and updating a vocational profile and CV, interview preparation, and in-placement coaching using systematic instruction.

The course also includes college-based sessions focusing on employability skills, targeted workshops and small group activities related to the placement role. Practical details: the course is full-time (Monday to Friday, 9:30am-4:30pm) and starts 7 September 2026 for one year.
