Future Pro with Keele University
Wed 6th November @ 5:30 pm - 7:30 pm GMT
Future-Pro: Bringing together local professionals and local undergraduates to work towards a local future
Future-Pro is an annual event that held in conjunction with each of our local universities that helps to build new relationships between Future Finest, Finest, and final year university students who are considering a career in professional services.
The key objectives of the event are to:
– Enable undergraduates to meet with local professional services sector businesses and young professionals, helping them to find out about the wide range of skills and expertise that exists in Stoke-on-Trent and Staffordshire
– Provide the opportunity for undergraduates to develop networking skills and to meet with potential employers
– Utilise the expertise of local professional services employers to offer advice and guidance to undergraduates relating to their chosen career plans
From the Future Finest and Finest perspective, the event allows us to reinforce the importance of retaining and developing local talent whilst encouraging students to stay and work in the area – and possibly identifying candidates for work placements or employment.
Future Finest and Finest have been helping with Future-Pro events since 2008 and, during that time, over 850 undergraduates have attended. Key to the success of each of those events has been the presence of Future Finest and Finest members and those members that attend find it an immensely enjoyable and rewarding event, on both a personal and professional level.
In essence, Future-Pro is therefore a mutually rewarding event that allows members to promote themselves, their businesses and the local area whilst also making a positive impression on, and genuine difference to, local undergraduates.
