Some of the workshops will include: looking at the current labour market, and recruitment for the Olympics, promoting student engagement through employment, volunteering to enhance employability, using Web 2.0 technologies in an employment service, supporting students with CVs and written applications, business start up, and the popular ‘if you are new to student employment’ workshop.

 

Keynote speakers currently booked include Jane Artess – Director of Research at HECSU, Margaret Dane – Director at AGCAS, Carl Gilliard - AGR and David Lammy, MP Minister for Higher Education and Intellectual Property. There are also talks planned from Croner on Employment Law and an USA update from NSEA (the National Student Employment Association).
