Unemployed people are to get the chance of a free qualification and a job through the Liverpool International Tennis Tournament.
A partnership between the city council, stewarding company Control Event Solutions (CES) and Northern Vision will see those aged over 19 offered the chance to gain an NVQ level two in spectator security at the Calderstones Park event.
They will be mentored during on-the-job training at the tournament, which takes place from 20-23 June, and also take part in three days of study for the qualification.
