Organisations from across the Isle of Man’s economy are being invited to participate in Employment and Skills 2013, the largest local event highlighting potential career and training opportunities for young people.
The event takes place on Tuesday 26th November at the Villa Marina, Douglas and is jointly hosted by the Department of Economic Development and the Department of Education and Children.
Tony Wild MLC, Political Member for the Department of Economic Development with responsibility for Employment and Skills said:
‘This event is primarily targeted at the Isle of Man’s students and school leavers who are keen to find out more about the kind of opportunities that exist in the Isle of Man and the skills required to exploit them, but is also open to anyone seeking to extend their skills or look for new opportunities and career options.
‘This year’s event will feature a dedicated ‘skills zone’ where those attending can experience firsthand some of the softer skills required to be successful in the jobs market.
‘We welcome companies and associations from the private, public and third sectors to the event in order to demonstrate the breadth of opportunities available.’
