OET Enterprise & Employability Hubs 15/16 Highlights
The principle of the Hubs is to deliver a range of careers, employability and student enterprise (i.e. business start-up) activities and advisory services. This is done via collaboration with schools, students, local businesses and external partners who will come together to support students to gain the confidence to be the best they can be, enabling them to be aspirational advocates for Oldham and successful in their own right.
