BUSINESSES across Keighley are being urged to join a pioneering project which links industry with potential employees.

Meet an Employer ‘webinars’ give firms the chance to outline their work to students and jobseekers and answer questions.

Following the success of the ten held so far, more are planned.

The webinars can be viewed by students from across Luminate Education Group – which includes Keighley College – as well as jobseekers in Harrogate and York.

Behind the initiative is Harrogate College’s Holly Hansen-Maughan. Support is provided by the Department for Work and Pensions.

“I started the webinars last September as a response to lockdown and there being less opportunities for people to engage,” said Holly.

“We have had a range of different employers and would like to ask businesses to come forward to be involved in the next series.”
