More Work Experience Training for Employers
By Admin
Members of the Sussex Learner Forum were invited to help deliver another East Sussex County Council (ESCC) training session, where employees expecting a work placement student can learn from other young people's experiences.
During the session forum members had the opportunity to make a presentation about EDGE, lead discussions around positive and negative experiences of work placements and explore solutions to different scenarios devised by the forum members. All participants were then given two copies each of the Sussex Forum's two sided poster, which aims to share both young people's and employers' expectations of each other on a work placement.
It was the second time that the Sussex Forum had been part of the training, and they hope to contribute to further sessions held by the ESCC next year.
One participant said of the session; "It's very useful, it gives us a chance to meet other people that have been on it and done work experience recently, so it's a good chance for us to reflect and to think about the new placement and to consolidate what you already know"
