TWES PROGRAMME
What is the TWES?
A TWES is a salaried Training and Work Experience Scheme Work Permit which enables individuals from Non-EU countries to gain skills and experience through work-based learning in the UK, which builds on their previous education and training and which they intend to use on their return overseas.
The applicant must be aged between 18 and 35 and at the beginning of their career.
A TWES is normally issued for 12 months, but if there is a special need or requirement of the work experience programme, then it can be extended to a maximum period of 2 years.
TWES permit holders can only work for a specific employer in a specific position.
If you think your company may be able to offer this type of position please contact Dominique for further information.
Education
The applicant must:
- Have a relevant academic/vocational qualification of at least bachelors degree level (minimum end of 2nd year) or equivalent; this will usually be a university degree in the subject; or
- Have at least 12 months previous relevant experience at bachelors degree level (minimum end of 2nd year) to enable him to benefit from a work experience programme; or
- be a student studying at a college overseas for a qualification relevant to the proposed work experience who has reached a level of study at or above bachelors degree level (minimum end of 2nd year).
Types of TWES Available
Hospitality & Tourism, Business Administration and Retail.
You must have a background in one of these subjects to qualify. The work undertaken during the training is paid at the rate established for the training by the employer. The minimum that will be paid to candidates will be the UK national minimum wage (£5.35 for aged 22 and over) but may be higher - this is dependant on the employer. The average hours to be worked are 39 - again dependant on the employer.
PLEASE NOTE: A TWES permit is only issued on the assumption that the applicant will leave at the end of the alloted time period, in order to make use of this training and work experience in his / her home country. For this purpose the applicant needs to establish that they have got sufficient family, social and economical ties with their home country. E.g. property documents, family documents etc.
