Helping you take the right step
Somerset Education Business Partnership connects employers with education providers so that young people are aware of local career opportunities and develop the skills needed to thrive at work.
We help:
employers to build their talent pipelines
education providers to build relationships with local employers
learners to understand post-16 options and the work place
Research has shown that young people who have contact with employers whilst at school are significantly less likely to become NEET - not in education, employment or training - and can expect to earn more money once they are in full-time employment.
If you are an employer who is interested in supporting students with careers activities, check our events calendar for opportunities to engage with schools in your area. If you would like to recruit volunteers from business to take part in careers activities at your school, contact us with details of your event.
We also promote details of careers events that young people can attend outside of school here and on our Instagram page.
