Business Needs

Many businesses say school leavers don't have the employability skills needed to fill the jobs available.

 

If young people are to stand a good chance of getting a job when they leave school, college or university, they need the employability skills that employers need. These skills equip them to adapt to the changing roles that characterise today’s economy. 

Employability skills are now generally recognised as a necessary precondition for developing and using other more specialist or technical skills. But ‘employability’ means more than just skills!

We organise various activities for employers to engage with secondary and primary schools to help young people to develop employability skills.
