Barclays LifeSkills is a fantastic way to help boost your CV, prepare for work and find work experience. It is a platform that can be used by Young People, Educators and businesses. It allows you to develop skills necessary to find employment and help you make decisions on your future career.
Due to the current health crisis this tool could be more useful than ever, for Young People to register it is free and gives you access to interactive tools and resources that can get you ready for the workplace. This will allow you to continue to develop skills with the support of businesses, educators and parents/carers.
Virtual Work Experience gives you the opportunity to work within a company that you may not have access to normally, allowing you to highlight key skills you may need to secure employment in the future.
