In our 30 years of service, we have delivered Careers Guidance support to over
100,000 people, delivered 40,000 accredited qualification, and offered
enterprise support to 1,550 businesses. EBCF Ltd is a not-for-profit company
limited by guarantee established in 1992 by Her Magesty’s Government mandated by
the Secretary of State to establish locally managed community capacity building
provision via East Birmingham Taskforce (1988). The Company established three
main areas of focus, these being, Jobs, Enterprise, and Training. The business
operated under the JET Shop brand for many years in the heart of East Birmingham
and during the last 10 years successfully branched out to other inner-city areas
of Birmingham and regionwide to meet contractual obligations and strategic
objectives. EBCF has delivered jobs, enterprise, and training related projects
through Local, Central and European government funding, and including other
philanthropic agencies. We are accredited with all leading exam boards and hold
direct claim status (DCS) for many qualifications from entry level to Level 6 in
various vocational areas. Our Careers Advisers are in-house trained and
qualified to Level 4 and 6 with wealth of knowledge and experience to enable our
customers to make a smooth transition from learning to work. Our 30 years of
local in-community delivery enables us to have a qualified perspective on what
will work and what will not when engaging local communities. Our success to date
has been possible by investing in local communities, establishing partnerships
with likeminded organisations, and levering resources of benefit to our
beneficiaries.
