Work-related Learning is about preparing young people for the ‘world of work’ and is an essential part of young people’s education.

It benefits employers by providing opportunities for your organisation to:

• Demonstrate jobs and careers in your sector
• Find recruits who are more work ready
• Contribute to the local community
• Enhance your profile and reputation
• Contribute directly to young people’s education
• Influencing attitudes toward work
• Developing capabilities and employability
• Contribute to Continuing Professional Development for staff
• Providing fresh ideas and perspectives
• Understand modern qualifications and developments in education

Work-related learning opportunities include:

• Mentoring young people
• Work shadowing
• Site and/or school visits
• Workshops
• Projects
• Mock Interviews
• Industry Days
• Practical experience
• Taster event
• Work simulations

If you would like to be involved in any of the above activities we would be delighted to hear from you:

As a single focused point of contact for both schools and employers we bring education together with business and the local community for mutual benefit.  We ensure that employers are not inundated with requests from schools, needs and objectives are met and links are managed in a cost effective manner.
