Careers service to hold two post-results webinars for youngsters

Redditch Editorial 9th Aug, 2020   0

TWO webinars are set to take place this month, following GCSE and A-Level results days.

The first is on Wednesday, August 19 from 12noon to 1pm and the second is on Monday, August 24 from 11am to 12noon.

Organised by Careers Worcestershire, these webinars are for students who do not receive the results they were expecting or those who are unsure of the path they would like to take in September.

Worcestershire’s local colleges, the University of Worcester, Worcestershire Apprenticeships and Two Counties Training will all be sitting on the panel of experts who will be able to give students information about their options and the advice they need to decide on their next steps.




Councillor Marcus Hart, cabinet member with responsibility for education and skills said: “These webinars provide a great opportunity for young people who are receiving their exam results to gain access to information and advice on next steps for September.”

Judith Chadwick, skills and investment group manager said: “It has been a challenging time for our Year 11 and 13 students and these webinars are an excellent opportunity for Worcestershire’s young people to receive all of the information and support they need from experts from local colleges, training providers, apprenticeship and traineeship providers and Worcestershire’s University in order to secure the next stage of their educational journey.


“It is important for young people to know that, even in these difficult times, there are plenty of opportunities for them in Worcestershire.”
