ESOL Employability Training
in Salford.

Salford has one of the highest concentrations of refugees and asylum seekers in the North West. EmployaLingua® — a Pathfinder Educational Ltd product based in Manchester — works with Salford City Council, the Northern Care Alliance, and Salford training providers to turn ESOL learners into employed workers.

Delivered under WEA-funded and Greater Manchester Combined Authority programmes. Available for commissioning by Local Authorities, training providers, FE colleges, and NHS workforce teams.

Built on the Trapezium Model — Identity, Character, Competence, Impact. Every learner begins with a personalised identity statement before a single word is taught. Learn how it works →

Salford context

Salford's ESOL learners are ready to work. The language gap is the only barrier.

Salford Royal — now part of the Northern Care Alliance — is one of the region's largest NHS employers. MediaCityUK has created significant digital sector employment adjacent to Salford. The University of Salford draws international students into the local workforce pipeline.

Yet ESOL provision in Salford still focuses on general English. EmployaLingua® delivers the sector-specific vocational language that bridges the gap between ESOL completion and employment in Salford's key sectors.
