“Employers have more to do to bridge the gap between the classroom and the world of work if British business is to find the talent, creativity and skills needed for our future.
“Many companies already offer work experience, but it's now more important than ever for young people’s first taste of work to be as relevant, meaningful and inspiring as possible.”
Sir Stuart Rose, Chairman of Business in the Community
Welcome to the new Work Inspiration Employer Toolkit, which includes interactive resources developed by employers and brought to life by our technology partner, U-Explore. Please take a look particularly at the Three Insights - three simple ideas that, when used as part of your programme can really make a difference to both the young person and staff who volunteer to host them.
We would love to know what you think so please let us know by using the feedback button on the site and most importantly we hope you will show your support by joining the campaign and become a Work Inspiration Employer.
