PDP for individuals:

What is the PDP?

The Professional Development Programme (PDP) at Quilombo UK is designed to support university and higher education students, existing professionals changing their career paths, and experienced professionals new to the UK labour market into employment in their chosen careers.

What are the benefits?

By participating in the PDP, individuals can gain valuable experience and skills that can increase their long-term prospects and opportunities. Those who wish to take their engagement and experience further can also pursue team leader and assistant manager roles.

The PDP offers participants a full induction, role-specific manuals, training videos, regular team leader reviews, and periodic reviews with the CEO. Participants are given business-critical tasks and are held accountable for their delivery.

Does it fit my needs?

Participants can apply to undertake roles in a number of departments including:

• Human Resources
• Legal
• Finance
• Administration
• Research
• Project Management
• Graphic Design
• Video Production
• Sound Engineers
• PR

Our participants through the departmental structure work to deliver all aspects of a project. Providing participants with a chance to provide community benefits at the same time as boosting their employability skills.
