Train4Tomorrow – jobs fair on March 16, 2022 from 9am to 1pm
The South West is facing a talent crisis! Train4Tomorrow, a government funded skills programme, is trying to address the lack of digital and tech skills across the region.
Train4Tomorrow is a government funded programme designed to help local people progress into highly skilled careers, and to fulfil the digital skills gap South West businesses are facing. To date, Train4Tomorrow has delivered free, high quality, digital training to over 750 adults in Devon, Plymouth, Somerset, Torbay, Cornwall and Dorset.
The programme offers a range of courses including Digital marketing, Cyber Readiness, IT Readiness, Agile Project Management and more, all taught at or above Level 3, which is equivalent to A-Levels. You can find out more about the programme at train4tomorrow.org.uk.
We are now looking to connect local employers with the highly-skilled talent completing the bootcamps at a free-to-attend Digital Jobs Fair (taking place online).
The jobs fair will take place on March 16, 2022 from 9am to 1pm, and we are inviting the latest cohort of 200+ learners to attend.
We are hoping that local employers who are struggling to find the right candidates, will take part in the day by booking a virtual table.
At your virtual table you can showcase your organisation to the bootcamp learners through a presentation or video, or have an informal chat with attendees about your business, promote your vacancies and meet with potential candidates. Learners will be able to share their CVs with you, so you can arrange future interviews with learners who stand out.
If this sounds complicated, it isn’t! We have our partner Bluescreen IT managing the tech on the day, and they will provide you in advance with simple joining instructions, as well as a pre-event demo session on March 14, 2022 from 2pm-2.30pm or 2.30-3pm.
This is a fantastic opportunity to showcase your company to the region’s highly skilled workforce, and connect with potential candidates to meet your talent needs

We look forward to connecting you to new highly skilled talent in the region.
