🚀Exciting News Alert!🚀 I'm excited to share this incredible initiative by The Sutton Trust, aimed at supporting less advantaged young people on their journey to university or an apprenticeship. Aiming to support a more diverse range of students across a wider geographic reach, we have expanded Sutton Trust Online (STO), offering invaluable digital support to 16-18-year-olds from low-income backgrounds. This free digital platform has already helped over 30,000 students secure life-changing opportunities, and now, for the first time, it's open to direct applications from eligible young people. STO provides a comprehensive range of resources, from admissions test prep to personal statement building, along with opportunities for skill development and insights from industry leaders. Plus, the support doesn't end there – graduates of the programme gain access to exclusive job and apprenticeship opportunities through the Sutton Trust Alumni platform. But here's where you come in: let's spread the word far and wide! Share this post in your networks and help us reach more students who could benefit from this incredible opportunity. And if you know any eligible students, encourage them to apply and take advantage of this fantastic resource. Applications for STO are now open: Sutton Trust Online - Sutton Trust.

Florida is on track to be #1 in the nation for workforce education by 2030. My top 5 takeaways from Adrienne Johnston's recent interview with Florida SBDC Network discussing how CareerSource Florida is helping reach this goal. 1. The CareerSource network is committed to expanding the labor force by including people who have significant barriers to employment. Doing this by equipping them with the resources and tools to succeed in a tight labor market. 2. Small businesses can get direct support, guidance, and resources, for the hiring, training, and retaining process of their employees all in one place. 3. There are over 100 CareerSource locations spread across every region of the state. EVERY business and EVERY person has access. Rural, urban, skilled, unskilled, there is a one-stop center nearby where people can get resources. 4. Apprenticeships are expanding outside of traditional "apprenticeship" industries. Working with CareerSource, the Healthcare, IT, and Data Analytics industries have all stood up recognized apprenticeship programs over the past year. This provides more opportunities for more Floridians. 5. Workforce system funding declines as the unemployment level decreases. This reality forces efficiencies across the entire system.
