This event is being facilitated by the three local further education Colleges. For the first time, we have been working together to ensure that there is a future talent pipeline for all the exciting jobs and opportunities that will be open to people in Gloucestershire.

Gloucestershire College, South Gloucestershire and Stroud College and Hartpury College are excited to meet you. Whether you're looking to re-train, upskill or change career, you can have exclusive access to local employers. Get your foot in the door, talk to organisations and discover what might be the best next steps for you. Our College teams can then inform you about the courses that will give you the key to unlocking your future.

This event isn't just for adults, If you're not sure what you want to do after school, this event will show you the different roles available in local businesses. You can then talk to the college teams to find out about the courses which will get you onto the career path that inspires you. If you do know not what industry you want to break into, find out about more specific roles our employers offer.

At the beginning of the pandemic, 24% of employers were unable to fill vacancies due to skills gaps, despite increasing levels of unemployment. Meet these employers here!
