At the Oil and Gas Technology Centre, we were sad that we couldn’t provide work experience and intern opportunities in our office this summer. We decided to do something about it and have created an online programme of inspiring education, webinars and career talks.
The aim of the programme is to:
- Help young people understand the energy transition and that exciting careers are available
- Support sustainable talent pipeline for energy sector
- Showcase the D&I split of staff within the OGTC team and show that career opportunities are accessible
- Create a sense of community for young people
The target audience for the 20-minute sessions is young people aged between 16 and 24. Here is the draft session schedule (below):
