4C UR Future, the social enterprise that aims to empower young people to make more informed education and career choices, has announced its 4C UR Future LIVE<\/em> events are returning in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In 2019, the organisation delivered a successful \u2018proof of concept\u2019 pilot event, which was supported by over 120 volunteers from over 30 cross-sectoral companies. Almost 1,200 Year 9 pupils participated in 4C UR Future LIVE<\/em> over two days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

These are not dry and boring information-based events. Instead, young people take part in a range of sector-related skills games and work-based challenges, developed in collaboration with local employers representing every sector, which are designed to draw out and identify their key strengths, attributes, and talents.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to the impact of COVID19, the at-scale pilot events due to be held in 2020 and 2021 were postponed. However, with the pressure on our teachers and education system, the need for the business community to step in collectively to help inspire, inform and support young people is even greater now than prior to the pandemic. Therefore, the organisation is delighted to announce the return of 4C UR Future LIVE<\/em> events, as an at-scale pilot, in 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

4C UR Future\u2019s Founder, Rose Mary Stalker, said: \u201cThe careers environment has become increasingly complex for our young people to navigate, with new jobs and sectors emerging, and employers are facing significant skills shortages and bottlenecks, inhibiting our businesses from growing.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201c4C UR Future LIVE was developed to provide a safe at-scale solution, to involve, inform, and inspire young people before they choose their GCSE subjects, so that they can make more empowered career pathway choices, and boost their opportunities.<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cWe are delighted to announce that we plan to hold 11 4C UR Future LIVE events this year \u2013 one in each Council area. In collaboration with a wide range of local employers, and supported by ten Councils, through our 2022 LIVE events we will engage with almost 7,500 Year 9 pupils from across Northern Ireland.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

The 2022 LIVE<\/em> event schedule is available to view on the Events<\/a> section of 4C UR Future\u2019s website, with the registration process for schools to register their interest in attending the at-scale pilot events launching in Q1 2022.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
