06 Nov Careers and Course Advice at National Apprenticeship & Education Events

The Fashion-Enter Ltd (FEL) team took part in the South London National Apprenticeship & Education Events held at Kia Oval on 5th November. 

The FEL stand attracted lots of young adults, final year secondary school pupils and school leavers, wanting to know about the fashion and textiles industry and the various career choices and pathways within the London area.

This was the second National Apprenticeship & Education Events in which FEL participated, with the aim of showcasing the diverse job options and access routes into the industry. The event was specifically designed to help school leavers make informed decisions about their next steps, whether that involves pursuing an apprenticeship, further education, or going to university.

The event featured presentations, workshops, and various exhibitors to guide young leavers in their career choices. FEL’s Head of Education, Lan Leeder, was present to promote the courses and apprenticeships available at FEL and its educational division, Fashion Technology Academy, and demonstrated basic sewing and repair techniques.

She said: “This was a fantastic event organised by the National Apprenticeships and Education Event. There were plenty of experts available to advise the young leavers on their career paths, whether they are considering an apprenticeship, attending university, or acquiring new skills. There is something for everyone.”
