Steps Courses at DCG
At Derby College we’re dedicated to releasing your potential – no matter what challenges you’ve faced or how unsure you are about your future direction. With our Steps programme, you can take that next step to success.
Tailored to suit you
Steps is a personalised programme for those who feel they need support to enter the world of work, to set a future career pathway and to progress their studies.
You will work towards recognised qualifications to add to your CV as well as gaining work experience or insights into what it is like to study vocational subjects at the College.
We will liaise with you to draw up a programme and targets which suit your requirements and you will be assigned a Personal Tutor to guide you throughout.
Our aim is to help build your confidence, resilience and independence alongside your skills and knowledge

As well as being able to share their knowledge and experiences with you, they have crucial industry connections, which is a huge benefit when it comes to helping you to secure a work placement in your chosen field.
