Agenda

Attendees will explore how to develop a strong career portfolio through training, specialist qualifications, workplace experience, additional responsibilities and personal development. The session will highlight the importance of soft skills such as communication, leadership, initiative and problem-solving, alongside technical and professional development opportunities.

For manufacturing businesses, this event offers an opportunity to support the development of emerging talent within their workforce by nominating an employee with the ambition to grow, develop new skills and explore future career opportunities. Attendees will leave with a clearer understanding of how they can take ownership of their development and identify routes into specialist and leadership roles.

Our delivery partner, Clear Quality, will showcase how apprenticeships can help employees already in work develop specialist expertise in quality, compliance and continuous improvement. Their presentation will explore how individuals can build new competencies and take on additional responsibilities while delivering value to their employer.
