Rinova and its consortium partners combine
innovation with experience and insight, working in partnership
with the private sector, education, civil society
organisations and the public sector to bring to life real solutions
in employment and labour markets. As well as supporting
'Primes' in larger-scale employment initiatives, we
design and implement our own partnership programmes.
Rinova was established with a core mission to support
young people in the transition into the labour market, and since
our foundation in 2010 we have implemented a wide range of
effective and innovative provision in this field. Through the
integration of employability and skills (e.g. apprenticeships) we
also undertake new projects that are targeted to support those who
are excluded - or at risk or exclusion - from the labour market due
to various and multiple issues of disadvantage, including people
with disabilities and those from minority and migrant
communities.
By way of bring our experience to current employment conditions
in the labour market, we have worked to improve the sustainable
employment and employability of a wide range of groups in the
labour market for over 30 years. Our experience dates
back to the employment schemes set up by the Manpower Services
Commission, through local, regional, national and European
employment initiatives developed by TECs/LSCs, RDAs and Government
departments; through to the present day through programmes
funded by the Education and Skills Funding Agency (ESFA), ESF, the
DWP, the Greater London Authority and the Big Lottery.
