Norfolk Chamber is passionate about bridging the gap between business and young people. We are continuing our engagement with schools through our Young Chamber school membership programme, on which we currently have 12 schools and 4 colleges as members. We also have a ‘Young Chamber Board’ to help us develop how businesses work more effectively with young people, especially in schools.
We feel that it is important that business individuals working in schools are supported, so we have developed a short training course to help businesses to feel more confident working with young people in a school environment.
The sessions will be delivered at Norfolk Chamber’s Norwich office by the Skills Service UK. The informative practical workshop will cover:
Information about schools, Key Stages, qualifications and terminology
Safeguarding introduction and do’s and don’ts
How to communicate effectively with young people
Understanding perceptions of young people and how they think
How employers can successfully engage with young people
Listening skills and learning styles
Examples of activities to do in schools
Places are limited, so will be allocated on a first come first served basis
