We know that teachers and the wider education workforce play a key role in supporting young people’s decision making, yet it can be a challenge for them to stay up to date with the pace of change in industry. For teachers and support staff to be confident in holding meaningful careers conversations, they need to stay up to date as recruitment practises change, the employer skills demand evolves, and the variety of pathways and opportunities increase. Enterprise Advisers can play a vital role in bridging this knowledge gap.  

What is a teacher encounter?

A teacher encounter provides an opportunity for teachers to engage directly with employers to see and learn about the different career pathways relevant to their subjects, and to observe how their subject is applied practically in business. Teacher encounters can take many forms, from two hours to multiple days, face-to-face, virtual or a mix of both.
