A mentoring programme that transcends sectors
We're proud to partner with a range of fantastic businesses, all of whom share the same values: to break down barriers for young people into the workplace.
Wiseup Networks is dedicated to enhancing social mobility in the UK by connecting young people aged 16-18 with industry leaders through tailored mentorship programmes and hands-on work placements.
This innovative approach not only provides invaluable real-world experience but also helps to level the playing field for students from diverse backgrounds, enabling them to build meaningful professional networks and gain critical insights into their chosen career paths.
We champion cross-sectional alliances between a more experienced workforce and those at the beginning of their careers. This encourages learning and development on both sides:
Learning and development for employees: increased professional development through skills development and new experiences. The result is a mentoring culture amongst your staff that lasts beyond programme completion.
Learning and development for students: increased confidence, understanding of career options and inspiration.
We collaborate with students aged 16-18 from diverse socio-economic backgrounds and forward-thinking businesses that are passionate about making a difference.
For students, the programme offers unparalleled opportunities for growth and career development, while partner companies benefit from contributing to social mobility and developing a future talent pipeline.
