It was called WEEP (Work Experience on Employers Premises) a superb programme dropped when YTS was created.

Thanks for that..........I wonder who spent hours dreaming up that acronym.
Manpower Services Commission. Their regional office in Birmingham was know as the ‘Dream Factory’ nothing came out if the place without hours of Focus Groups, Litmus Test Groups several consultants inputs and much navel gazing. Everyone had an input, well nearly, they never asked the end users or those responsible for delivering the programmes. I spent a year working on one of the 6 Local Authorities YTS pilot schemes and we never saw MSC until after the pilot programmes were closed.
Happy days
