Join the Movement – Help Shape the Future Workforce
Every business has the power to inspire the next generation. By offering work experience opportunities, you can help students gain valuable skills, explore career paths, and build confidence for their future.
Join our Employer Pledge today and be part of a nationwide initiative to connect young people with meaningful work experience.
Offering work experience is an investment in the future workforce and the success of your business. Many employers who participate find that students bring fresh ideas and enthusiasm to their workplace.
What’s Involved?
Becoming a work experience provider is simple and flexible. You can choose a level of involvement that works for your business.
- One-Day Career Insight Days: Give students an overview of your industry through tours, talks, and interactive activities.
- One-Week Work Experience Placements – Allow students to shadow employees and take on practical tasks within your business.
- Long-Term Placements (T-Level or Extended Work Experience) – Support students in a structured role over several months with real responsibilities.
- Virtual Work Experience – Engage students through remote projects, online mentoring, and digital workplace insights.
If you are unsure what format works best for your organisation, we can help design a programme that aligns with your capacity and objectives.
