Organised by the ETF, Group Industry Placements will provide you with the opportunity to meet with and hear from industry professionals considered leaders in their field. Joining FE colleagues across the country, these virtual or face-to-face events are designed to help you develop a deeper understanding of T Level subjects and how they are applied in industry by working professionals. Events can cover a wide range of topics, for example; current and future trends, new and emerging technologies, insights into existing projects, standards and practices in the day to day life of industry professionals plus career pathways and progression opportunities for T Level learners.
There is also the opportunity for you to organise a Group Industry Placement for yourself and your colleagues with an employer that you have identified. For more information, please contact: industryinsights@etfoundation.co.uk.
