There's every point .
If a person is unemployed it is very easy to get into a routine of not working or doing anything apart from sitting in the house watching tv with a training scheme the unemployed are at least doing something to ocupy themselves .It is also far better to train people for jobs even if they aren't there yet ,one day they will be when the economy picks up and then we will have a workforce to fill the vacancies .
Training schemes should be looked on as a opportunity not a punishment or a chore .Of course they have to be run properly and recognised by future employers to be worth anything ,which is something the Government need to address
