Career and Employment support

Learners, parents and carers, we hope you enjoy our first virtual careers event. The information gathered is from agencies who can support with employment choices as well as employers both big names and small independent firms.

The aim is for you to look through the information at college with your tutor then again at home to help you gain a better understanding of your future employment goals.

We hope this event will help to raise your aspirations and see that you really can do it!
