The world of work is changing fast. Small and medium-sized businesses account for the majority of employment opportunities in the UK and more people than ever before run their own businesses.
Industries are transforming and many companies that will become household names in 10 years’ time do not yet exist. This can make it difficult for potential job-seekers, and those who teach them, to keep up.
At the same time, youth unemployment remains three times higher than the national average, and the number of young people not in education, employment or training (NEET) rose in January 2016 to 853,000.
This is despite the fact that there are 700,000 unfilled vacancies across the country.
