The planned event was a joint venture with our colleagues from the schools and supporting partner Bothwell Futures and as such, highlighted the Scottish Government focus on young people as the catalyst for Future Jobs, Apprenticeships, Skills and the emerging jobs market.
With the event taking place towards the end of the school academic year, we also provided 35 employers attending with a platform to showcase pathways to their sector, should they be looking to engage with the future workforce. The follow up to this event will then see the employers support 2 local SLC schools; Holy Cross and Uddingston Grammar School with personal development interventions for 40 pupils in the new academic year. This will included CV workshops, mock interview sessions and work experience opportunities.
