Schools
'What are the benefits for schools?'
Students are ambassadors of their schools. Many schools publicly take pride in students who have gone on to develop good careers.
Having a solid foundation, demonstrating investment into student's futures, and having a proven track record of students gaining good career opportunities will put a school in a very good public light. More parents will be keen to send their children to schools who show a genuine interest in their student's futures, and local authorities will be more inclined to invest in such schools.
Beyond the realms of legal careers, our mentoring, guidance, and CV / letter writing assistance will prove invaluable to students aiming to gain careers in any industry resulting in the school returning impressive analytics and an entrenched legacy.
Schools can expect the following.
Training and workshops
Training and workshops for their students, tailored to different year groups. Developing career expectations from a young age will provide students with the platform to consider their careers well in advance of leaving secondary education.
With many volunteers from the legal industry, we provide opportunities for students to speak to active members of the sector including barristers, solicitors, clerks, and other support staff such as IT engineers and marketeers.
Leads for work experience placements
Finding placements for year 10 two week work experience is challenging for teachers. Many teachers have reported spending excessive hours trying to find suitable and interesting work experience placements for students.
While we cannot guarantee placements, we can offer access to a large network of organisations improving the chances of securing placements.
Mentoring and information
We do not expect the teachers to have a full understanding of the legal industry, and so appreciate that they might not be best placed to mentor and guide students appropriately. We at AccPro have in-depth knowledge and resources. With trained mentors, we can take the responsibility of guiding students accordingly and appropriately.
CV and Letter Writing
An element that would be of huge benefit to students across any industry. Not only will we provide training on good CV and letter writing, we will provide templates with holding text that gives snap shot advice and examples to assist the student.
We do not expect the legal industry to suit all students, nor is it realistic to expect everyone to land the jobs they want. But, good CV writing will make a huge difference with student's endeavours in landing career opportunities.
