A Platform for Direct Interaction
Amanda Boutell, Senior Project Officer for Employment and Skills, highlighted the importance of such events: “It’s crucial that young people are aware of all the opportunities available to them, whether that is further education or employment.” She emphasized the value of students speaking directly to leading local employers, gaining a broad view of the opportunities in both employment and education.
The council’s commitment to developing employment opportunities and skills levels across the district was evident. By collaborating with employers and local training providers, they ensure residents have access to expert careers advice, job search support, and skill development.
