Stockport based Damar Training are co-hosting two seminars with one of their employer partners Linder Myers Solicitors – a must for anyone looking to recruit an apprentice or anyone who manages young employees.
The seminars are to be hosted at Stockport Apprentice Store and will dispel fears and help businesses to understand the benefits that the next generation can bring to businesses.
Rachel Daley Business Development Manager at Damer explains:
“Many small employers fear that the process of recruiting, managing and developing the skills of a young employee will be complex and risky. However this needn’t be the case and employers who don’t recruit school and college leavers risk missing out on the next generation’s energy, enthusiasm and creativity – all of which are vital for businesses to grow.”
Damar Training have been helping businesses recruit and train young people in Stockport for over 30 years; Linder Myers solicitors understand the legal and regulatory environment facing employers.
The events are primarily for Stockport and South Manchester-based SMEs and in-house finance and accounts teams. The aim is to encourage the maximisation of opportunities (including grant funding) that are available and show businesses how best to manage the risks.
