A partnership between Employ Kent Thameside, North West Kent College, JobCentre
Plus, Start, ProLogis and Dartford Borough Council, The Learning Shop has been designed
to help develop the potential of everyone working at The Bridge.
Based at The Nucleus, The Learning Shop @ The Bridge can provide free recruitment
services and help companies to identify funded training programmes; or it can put
them in touch with business advisers provided by Business Link.
Similarly, the Nucleus includes the Hatchery, a space where people with a business
idea can hire a workstation by the hour, day, week or month to develop a business
plan with the help and a mentoring and training service provided by the Learning
Shop.
Sally Clarke, Manager of Employ Kent Thameside says: “Both the Learning Shop @ The
Bridge and the Hatchery are the result of good partnership working and together
they are providing excellent support for new entrepreneurs as well as for companies
who are keen to develop the skills of their employees.”
