Work Experience

Access to high quality work experience opportunities is key to bridging the gap between education and meaningful employment. At its broadest and best, work experience can open young people’s eyes to jobs they never thought of, help inform career decisions, offer a chance to prove themselves to an employer and help instil the attitudes and behaviours expected in the workplace.
