2 heads are better than 1. CWC is in an exciting new partnership with Worcester College of Technology

Consultancy Helps to Improve Student’s Job Prospects

ClarkeWood Consulting has teamed up with Worcester College of Technology to help give their students even better job prospects. Our expert Consultancy agency has worked closely with the College for the last two years developing their IT curriculum by delivering CV workshops, tutorials and helping to host IT events.

James Duckhouse, Computing Lecturer at the College commented:

“Working with ClarkeWood Consulting has really helped us improve the experience our students get. They helped us deliver The Eye T Champions Project, where students from Worcester College of Technology supported visually impaired students at Sight Concern using computers. This was a fantastic opportunity for students to use their skills and put them to good use in helping others.

“They have supported us in so many other ways – from assisting us with our Geek Chic Conference aimed at encouraging more girls to study IT and consider it as a career, to setting up employability skills tutorials for students to help them improve their CVs. They have also advised us which skills employers look for, which has led us to alter our curriculum to teach new technologies that employers look for. This should make their job prospects even better when they finish the course!”

ClarkeWood Consulting is an independent specialist IT staffing business which works closely with both employees and jobs seekers to deliver quality IT placements for IT Professionals. They were also the finalist at the Worcestershire Ambassadors CSR Awards, which recognises businesses across the country that endeavor to support the local community. The support ClarkeWood has provided to the college helped them secure their finalist position.  

Victoria Taylor, our IT Recruiter and Head of CSR at ClarkeWood Consulting commented:

“We are really pleased to be working in partnership with Worcester College of Technology. Having IT at the heart of our business means that we are well informed of industry changes, skill gaps, trends and influences effecting employers therefore enabling us to advise and guide the College accurately in the hope of producing quality professionals to stay within the county for local businesses to utilise and hire.

“With projects such as Eye T Champions and Geek Chic proving such a success in 2013, we are certainly looking forward to starting 2014 with a solid relationship having been formed between the College and ourselves.
