iCan - An Evening

November 28, 2023 - 4:30pm to 7pm (last entry)

The Kings Centre, Eastbourne, BN23 6PT

The Careers Hub aim to provide young people, and parents and carers of young people with special educational needs and/or additional needs with the opportunity to gain the relevant information regarding progressing into the next best phase of education, training or employment.

At iCan, young people, and parents and carers will have the opportunity to meet education and training providers that offer a variety of possible pathways, employers with current or future live vacancies, and apprenticeship providers. There will be employers with live vacancies and you will have the opportunity to take part in a pre-interview, mock interview or work/skills discussion with an employer. If you have a CV, Vocational Profile or Education and Health Care Plan (EHCP), we recommend bringing a copy with you to the event to show prospective employers, and education and training providers.

Support and Networking services from across East Sussex will also be in attendance to help answer the questions you may have regarding next steps after formal education.

Everybody in attendance will receive an information and guidance booklet to support progression and transition from formal education to further education, training, and/or employment.
