The launch, which took place on October 24, marks a joint initiative by the Isle of Wight Council, Portsmouth City Council, and Southampton City Council.

With support from the Careers Enterprise Company, the hub aims to improve careers education by linking employers with 42 secondary schools and five colleges in the area.

The hub will provide work experiences and other opportunities to help meet the needs of schools and local businesses.

Emma Carney, area manager south for The Careers and Enterprise Company, said: “We are pleased to be working with the Solent Careers Hub to ensure that every young person is supported in their next steps, whether that is further education, training or employment.”

Ben Mason, founder and CEO of globalbridge, said: “Research through the Mckinsey Global Institute indicates that the skills driving productivity and growth are evolving beyond traditional academic credentials. globalbridge is excited to be working with Southampton City Council and schools across the region providing the ability for students to evidence these wider skills and achievements through their own digital record of achievement.”

Kev Sadler, Solent Careers Hub lead, said: “The Hub is a great opportunity, working with dedicated and talented colleagues, to bring educators and employers together to give young people extraordinary opportunities. We are committed to working with our partners to develop and deliver world-leading careers education.”

By working closely with schools, the Solent Careers Hub hopes to address gaps in local careers education and create innovative experiences tailored to the community.

The Solent Careers Hub aims to help pupils secure jobs in the future.
