Give young people an insight into your world!

A visit to industry is a top priority for all schools and forms part of GCSE & Diploma courses.

Not only will a visit to your company fascinate and inform school pupils, but help you build links with your future employees and customers!

How does it work?

We will plan the visit with you, taking note of the number of students you can accommodate and health and safety requirements. A teacher always accompanies students.

The structure of the visit will be shaped by the students’ learning objectives. For example, if you’re in the Manufacturing business, students may find it useful to see an assembly line, learn about product development and quality control, or talk to the Production & Marketing Department staff. A service environment could provide students with an insight into Finance, dealing with customers or the use of I.C.T.

By talking to key personnel and observing a day in the life of your company, students acquire an understanding of how your industry or business operates.

Here at Jaguar Land Rover we believe it is imperative that young people get the chance to see what working in a major car production company involves. A visit to industry provides this insight and allows us to discuss future, exciting career opportunities for potential apprentices.
