Catch22 Microsoft Digital Edge Programme

Catch 22 Logo

The Digital Edge Programme is a programme funded by Microsoft that aims to help people between 18 and 45 into the tech industry

Have you ever wondered what it's like to work in the tech industry? Wanted to land that IT role but wasn't sure how. Considered a role in coding or software. Wanted to gain a data entry or admin role.

If you said yes or maybe? This programme could be the next step in your journey.  

Catch22 and Microsoft have teamed up to create a programme that allows people to explore the world of tech, digital and IT. We offer support and guidance towards this goal.  

Join us for a 4-week part time programme and gain an insight into the industry. Learn about entry pathways, complete practical activities to give you recent experience and gain confidence when applying for roles. 

The programme covers the different type of tech roles available in the industry, covers tech jargon, how to create a covering letter and CV for specific positions and group projects. Alongside our facilitators we do have guest speakers from tech apprenticeships providers. Microsoft staff will also speak to the group about the tech industry.

Following training we will appoint a personal Career Coach who will help you with interview techniques and help you source opportunities such as jobs, apprenticeships and work experience. 

Once employed, we can also offer you up to 6 months in work support, where you can still gain advice and guidance.  

Why not register your interest and one of our coaches can give you a call to go through any questions you might have? 

To be eligible you must be: 

  • Interested in a digital and tech industry
  • 18 to 45 years old
  • Access to laptop / computer and headphones
  • Not in education or employment
  • Have the right to work within the UK
  • Have a basic level of IT skills
