With many businesses struggling to recruit quality, skilled staff ex-service personnel offer a significant opportunity to help fill the gaps.

Join us for this important awareness session as part of the ChamberFORCE Armed Forces Programme.

Nicola Smith, Development Officer for SCQF, will highlight the amazing range of transferable skills that ex-service personnel bring to the workplace.

Discover the wealth of valuable skills, experience, and qualifications that veterans and service leavers can offer – many of which are not always immediately apparent to employers outside the armed forces.

Nicola will also provide valuable insights into the game-changing "Military Skills Discovery Tool." This tool recognizes and translates the skills, experience, and qualifications gained during service into language that is easily understood by learning institutions and employers outside the armed forces. It supports ex-military personnel in gaining employment or pursuing further education, while also helping serving personnel understand their skills and qualifications to plan their careers effectively.

Don't miss this opportunity to gain valuable knowledge and unlock the potential of ex-service personnel as part of your workforce.
