Induction
All learners are given a comprehensive induction which clearly explains their rights and responsibilities and the rules and regulations. Learners receive a copy of the Learner’s Handbook and watch a training CD designed to encourage debate on equality of opportunity issues. 
We check that learners have gained appropriate knowledge and understanding through the completion of a questionnaire at the end of the induction programme.
Your induction is designed to help you settle into your learning programme.
During your induction you will be told about:
First Rung and what you can expect from us
Your learning programme and what it involves
Health and Safety (Click here to read our Health and Safety Rules)
Equal Opportunities (Click here to view our Equal Opportunities Statement )
