Inspiring Success employability workshop series
We’re launching our employability workshops as part of our Inspiring Success programme this month. Our Inspiring Success initiative is designed to provide employability support and funding for unemployed or underemployed graduates from the East London Growth Boroughs of Hackney, Newham, Tower Hamlets and Waltham Forest.
The series has been designed to encourage graduates to develop new skills, reflect on their experiences and market themselves to potential employers. The workshops cover topics such as positive thinking and the significance of mindset and resilience in the context of job hunting or career progression. A full timetable of the workshops can be found below.
To sign up to the workshops, please complete our Inspiring Success 2018 booking form. Please visit our Inspiring Success web page to find out more about the scholarship.
