Event highlighting work and training opportunities takes place today
It's important the impact of an event promoting the work and training opportunities available on the Isle of Man continues after the event has finished.
That's from Education, Sport and Culture Minister Sarah Maltby as Employment and Skills 2026 takes place at the Villa Marina today.
Approximately 1,400 students will attend throughout the day, while from 3pm the venue is open to the general public.
Around 60 employers will be on hand to discuss openings in their sectors, while University College Isle of Man will be available to discuss training, qualifications and apprenticeships.
Minister Maltby says it's vital the event does lead to opportunities. She spoke live on Manx Radio Breakfast this morning:
