We're working with Mission Accomplished on a brand-new work experience programme that aims to inspire young people in years 10 and 11 through meaningful, hands-on placements with employers in the creative industries.
Next Generation Creatives aims to match young people from state schools in England with an employer in the creative industries for a 3 day, in-person work experience placement.
Mission Accomplished will support employers through the process, managing the liaison between the school/student and ensuring everything runs smoothly across the placement. This includes the payment of expenses to the young people to cover travel etc.
This is a fantastic opportunity for employers to get involved and help inspire a young person at a pivotal point in their education and career-decision journey.
