Peak Career Consulting offer an outplacement service to small and medium size enterprises which are tailored to meet the needs of the business and individual(s) and typically covers a number of interactive sessions in a group format which can then easily include 1:1 coaching sessions to consolidate the process which again can be tailored to meet individual needs.

A similar format is also available as a job seekers workshop which has been tried and tested within the education arena and additionally to a number of participants in employability projects with 2 Universities in West Yorkshire.

The services we offer and their benefits have already been previously highlighted under the section Our range of services and the key benefits gained for individual clients, and in addition other key benefits in a group situation also include:

• Practising the techniques in a safe and comfortable environment.
• Developing relationships and contacts with others.
• Increasing confidence and self esteem by recognising the skills and abilities you
  have to offer.
• Sharing concerns and indeed feelings with others who are facing the exact same situation.
• Having an independent person to coach and listen to them and by providing ongoing support.
