Following a fantastic discussion last year, David is joining us to provide an update on the region's Trailblazer programmes and provide insight on the department's Work Experience and Skills Swaps initiatives. With the NEET agenda and Milburn Review shaping policy, this is a key opportunity for employers to feed directly into DWP thinking, including whether the DWP’s work experience offer and new Jobs and Careers Service are being designed at the right level to meet employers' needs.
