Many employers will be on hand to speak to young people at the Liverpool City Region Skills Show; some of them will be regular recruiters of apprentices, whilst others will be representing some of the key growth sectors in the region including hospitality, healthcare, visitor economy, digital and creative. All employers will be focussed on informing young people about future job opportunities, the types of skills they look for and apprenticeship opportunities.
The exhibitors have been working hard to make their stands interactive, so you can experience elements of an apprenticeship first hand. It’s a great opportunity to see if the career you are dreaming about is the one for you and to try some alternatives that you might find you are a natural at.
The 1st of March is described as a twilight session and is specifically designed for parents, carers, individuals and groups of friends. It provides the opportunity to discuss a young person’s future and help them take the right steps to achieve their full potential.
Across both days there is a programme of talks on the ‘Get Skilled’ stage and ‘Future You’ theatre featuring an ‘Apprenticeship for all presentation by the Apprenticeship Support team. Open the Door Theatre in Education will be presenting their play called ‘Apprenticeships, your pathway to success.’ Unifrog will be covering how to interview well and prepare your CV together with many other exciting presentations.
