New launch of The Foreign and Commonwealth 'Recruit For Spouses' support

A brand new programme has been launch to help Non UK spouses in British military families find employment and training in the UK.

A year of planning and preparation, Recruit for Spouses  have launched a programme where spouses can receive help with:

• Study
• Access to employment 
• Transfer of qualifications to UK equivalents
• Professional registration

The highly acclaimed Career Academy will cover the costs of obtaining a Statement of Comparability and facilitate the application process.

Working with trusted service providers to ensure qualifications meet UK standards, they will provide support so users can feel confident and bolstered as they prepare to take advantage of their hard-earned qualifications in a new country!

We are proud to be the first company to offer such comprehensive support to the Foreign and Commonwealth community and look forward to continuing our ongoing support and collaboration to make a lasting impact.

We are privileged to have the trust of the Foreign and Commonwealth community in delivering this service and consider it an honour to serve individuals who possess so much strength, skill, grit, and determination.

People often underestimate the challenges of moving from one's home country to a new one, especially when doing so with children. Whether moving alone or with family, the additional challenges faced by the Foreign and Commonwealth community are significant. These challenges highlight the indomitable character and capacity of the people we support and work alongside.

• Must be a partner of a Foreign or Commonwealth national serving as a member in paid service in HM Forces (Royal Navy, British Army, or Royal Air Force)
• Must be over 18 years of age
• Partners include spouses, civil partners, fiancés(e), or individuals living with serving personnel in a relationship akin to marriage/civil partnership for at least two years

Application Requirements:
