The Adviza Careers Service offer:
The WoW Group members have built successful careers and, in some cases, successful businesses.
They work in a range of industries and on their way to their current position have learned how to navigate a career path that can often be less that straightforward, how to stand out in a competitive job market and what they’re looking for when they interview.
Those who run their own successful businesses share their experience of getting started, the highs and lows and the advantages or disadvantages of working for yourself.
All are willing to highlight opportunities within their organisations to our LVS Ascot pupils.
Discussing World of Work matters is personally beneficial to parents too. The combination of informal and formal business networking available by participating in the WoW Group meetings, sharing work related ideas, learning from each other and finding ways to collaborate is extremely valuable.
The WoW Group is open to any LVS Ascot Junior or Senior school mums or dads with business experience who want to contribute and network with other LVS Ascot parents in business. Help us bridge the gap between education and careers to inspire and support our children into the World of Work, and support each other along the way too.
Being a member of The WoW Group is an ideal way to support the school with your business / industry insights by attending WoW Group evening committee evenings. Make new local business contacts and get direct benefit for you or your business by or attending WoW Group business networking morning sessions.
