About this Event
About the Workshop
As the world of careers education evolves, so too does the vital role of the Enterprise Adviser (EA). This workshop is designed to bring together current advisers and new volunteers to explore what strategic, impactful enterprise advising looks like today.
Grounded in the Gatsby Benchmarks and the ambitions of the growing work experience promise, this session will help define a refreshed vision for the EA role—one that is purposeful, influential, and capable of shaping high-quality, meaningful encounters for every young person.
Whether you are an experienced adviser or brand new to the network, this workshop offers the chance to reconnect, reflect, and reimagine the value enterprise advising can bring to schools, businesses, and local communities.
Why Attend?
By joining this interactive half-day event, you will:
✔ Build shared clarity on purpose and success
Understand why the EA role is being refreshed and how it differs from traditional volunteering models such as the Give an Hour offer.
✔ Reflect on where we are now
Participate in discussions and activities to evaluate current practice and identify opportunities to enhance value.
✔ Define what “strategic” looks like in practice
Explore how advisers can grow their influence, strengthen school-employer partnerships, and help secure meaningful workplace experiences for all young people.
You’ll leave with practical insights, stronger connections, and a clearer understanding of how to make the greatest impact through your EA role.
