Starting conversations between young people and employers: an evaluation

Greater Manchester Talent Match have been evaluating their Big Conversation events.

These occasions have become a central part of the employer engagement strategy, stimulating frank, open and forward-thinking dialogue between employers and young people furthest from the workforce.

The aim of these events were:

  • To break down barriers between young people and employers
  • Challenge perceptions held on both sides of the employer/young person divide
  • Create new networks between employers and young people

The full evaluation can be read here, an executive summary is available here.
