All you need to know about mentoring with The Early Careers Foundation (BCI member only event)
BCI Webinar
Bristol Creative Industries is thrilled to, once again, be partnering with The Early Careers Foundation for a brilliant initiative for Bristol Creative Industries members.
The Foundation is a social mobility charity that works with young people from low-income backgrounds across the UK, to ensure that talent & hard work are what determine their career success, not background.
One of its initiatives is a mentoring programme, which pairs employees from partner organisations (that’s BCI and our brilliant members!) with 16-18-year-olds for monthly, hour-long mentoring sessions from October-July.
You can volunteer to be a mentor to one of these high-potential young people using the Foundation’s expertly designed resources to support building their confidence, developing their employability skills and offering invaluable professional guidance.
Bristol Creative Industries members can join a 30 minute Zoom session on Tuesday 21st April from 12.30-1pm with Alex Hutton, Foundation manager, to find out:
The Foundation does the legwork – covering the cost of your Enhanced DBS check, running comprehensive mentoring training sessions and providing expertly designed resources to structure each session – so that the only ‘eligibility’ criteria is that you are enthusiastic, happy to share learnings from your own professional experience and crucially, committed to at least one year of monthly mentoring sessions.
The mentoring scheme is an easy way to play your part in inspiring the next generation of talent and anyone can become a mentor so it’s a brilliant way to get the whole team involved.
This is a free session exclusively for Bristol Creative Industries members. Click the ‘Buy Tickets’ button below to reserve your spot.
