Applications are open for the Young Learner Advisory Team

As an organisation all about supporting skills development across a range of employment sectors, we want to hear what learners think and are searching for a team of six current, or recently qualified vocational learners to join the City & Guilds Learner Advisory Team.

The newly formed Young Learner Advisory Team will become an extension of our Board of Trustees, with a key role of embedding experience and perspectives to enable a strong sense of the learner voice being at the heart of all key decision making.

For this team, we are looking for bright and enthusiastic individuals who can help us raise issues, challenge opinions and give insight on key elements which impact the way we deliver and develop our products and services.
