With future work opportunities being very much on the agenda, young people are being encouraged by Dorset Local Enterprise Partnership (LEP) to attend the online Careers and Apprenticeship Show 2021 which takes place on Thursday 20 May.

The event will bring schools, colleges, universities and businesses together and will showcase the very best that Dorset, Hampshire and Surrey have to offer in relation to careers and apprenticeships.

The event will feature a full day of interactive webinars, chatrooms, and 60 employer and apprenticeship provider booths. It will run until 7pm to ensure that parents also have the opportunity to meet companies, colleges, training providers and universities, and to explore their child’s local career options.

Rebecca Davies, head of Enterprise, Skills and Industry at Dorset LEP, said: “The event will be a fantastic opportunity for young people to learn more about their future career options and for businesses to meet their potential future workforce and develop relationships with schools across the regions.”

The following Dorset companies will be available to talk to young people and parents at the event: Dorset NHS, University Hospitals Dorset, Royal Air Force, Mazars LLP, Coles Miller Solicitors, Signature Technicair, The Marriott Hotel, The Tank Museum, Morgan Sindall, Superior Seals, J P Morgan, Tricuro, AECC University College, Bournemouth University, Arts University Bournemouth, Bournemouth and Poole College and Kingston Maurward College
