What are the advantages to you?
There are many reasons why you might want to get involved with schools and colleges in your area.
The most significant advantage is the opportunity it will give you to raise your profile within the local community. It demonstrates your commitment to community involvement, which may be necessary for accreditation under a quality programme, or required by your corporate customers.
Community involvement creates a positive image of your company and can lead to extensive PR coverage, locally, regionally and nationally. NYBEP can help to arrange this with you.
Working with students can help improve your employees' skills such as coaching, leadership, communication, presentation and problem solving.
In some cases, linking with education can also help to promote your brand and encourage usage of your product or service.
It also gives the opportunity to challenge preconceptions about your industry.
