Pre and Post Work Experience Programme (Lorenzo Cosco)

Preparation and De-briefing are important elements of successful Work Experience and Walsall EBP has developed a programme to support schools with this task.

Each of the two sessions can be delivered to up to 120 students and can be tailored to fit the available time. Each session will require at least one hour and twenty minutes.

Walsall EBP will recruit Business Supporters to work with the students.
