What's in this episode?

Welcome to the next episode of our #voctechpodcast series!

This week I'm in conversation with David Shull, Head of Handshake UK and Europe. Handshake work to make the student employability space or "bridge to work" better. In this episode, recorded earlier in the year, David and I chat about starting Handshake, the pain points for employers aiming to recruit students, and creating more opportunities for students no matter where they are located.

We also have some snippets from Ian Hurd, who was out and about at the recent Ufi Voctech Showcase, chatting to MegaNexus, Nissan and Pembrokeshire College.

Thank you to Ufi Voctech Trust for supporting this series and vocational skills development in the UK, through their investments and grants in vocational technology. You can check out their work here.
