A
new annual publication from the creators of Tees Business will highlight local career options to the region ’ s young people – and provide advice on how to get the skills to start their journey .
The glossy magazine , Tees Skills , is designed to tackle the apparent disconnect between young people who believe there ’ s a lack of opportunities in the Tees region and businesses that struggle to find people with the right skills to fill their vacancies .
Dave Allan , director of publishers Resolution Media and Publishing , explained the thinking behind the new publication : “ Training and recruitment are two of the biggest challenges facing the Tees region ’ s businesses .
“ Business leaders tell us they have dozens – if not hundreds – of vacancies to fill . And yet , many of our young people believe there are ‘ no jobs on Teesside ’ and they must leave the region to prosper .
“ There ’ s a communication breakdown , a disconnect between industry and our future workforce about the type and quality of careers that exist here across the Tees region .
“ Tees Skills is designed to help tackle that communication breakdown .”
Launching in October , annual publication Tees Skills will inspire and educate our young learners about the exciting future career opportunities here in the Tees region and , crucially , the skills they ’ ll need to land their dream job .
Working with stakeholders in the training and education sectors across Middlesbrough , Stockton , Redcar & Cleveland , Darlington and Hartlepool , Tees Skills will be written in a punchy , vibrant style designed to appeal to its young target audience – primarily in the 14-22 age bracket – but with its distribution crucially also targeting young people and their parents / guardians .
For the region ’ s educators who are responsible for preparing our young people for their future careers , Tees Skills will also provide an informative introduction to local career opportunities .
Resolution director Martin Walker said : “ Tees Skills represents a step-change in educating our future workforce – your future workers – and showing them what can be achieved right here in our region , without the need to leave the area to fulfil their career aspirations .”
For our region ’ s businesses , Tees Skills is an opportunity to tell the region ’ s talented young people about the opportunities – present and future – within your business .
For the region ’ s education , training and skills providers , Tees Skills is your chance to shine a light on the training and educational opportunities you provide to help young people gain the skills they need .
