Movement to Work is delighted to announce that it is co-hosting a free online ‘lunch and learn’ event with Generation UK on Wednesday 28th August 12-12.45pm.
About
Talent is equally distributed. Opportunity is not – there are roughly 3 million jobseekers in the UK – 1 million classified as ‘unemployed’ (with this rising through early 2024) and another c.2 million ‘inactive’, but who would like to work. Between 2022 and 2025, the UK government is investing £1.6 billion in adult skills education, opening new possibilities for employers.
Skills bootcamps have become a significant component of the UK’s skills infrastructure, providing an alternative to traditional entry-level pathways like apprenticeships and graduate schemes.
Join us for an online webinar to learn how skills bootcamps can support us in levelling the playing field for young people struggling to overcome barriers to work
This session will help you to:
- Understand skills bootcamps & the need in the UK
- Hear from a Generation Alumni of how a skills bootcamp has impacted their life and career for the better
- Learn about the experience of hiring from a Generation bootcamp
