Meet a stakeholder advisor video
Watch Wendy, a stakeholder engagement advisor (who works in offshore wind) at work and find out about the knowledge and skills she needs for success.
According to the Gatsby Foundation, ‘Good career guidance is important for social mobility because it helps open pupils’ eyes to careers they had not previously considered.’ That’s why Energising Futures has developed career connection resources, showing how the knowledge and skills developed in the classroom relate to real-life problem solving challenges and future careers.
Through day-in-the-life videos, case studies, job-role cards and more, learners become familiar with a growing range of new, future careers, connect with relatable people in those careers and discover a range of pathways from education to employment .
Check out our innovative training program, Green Skills Unlocked, that supports teachers with bringing green careers to life in the classroom.
