Not sure where to start with your internship search?
Do you feel like you're at a standstill and unsure about the next steps in your search?

Our unique Startup Experienceships aim to kick internships into the 21st century with a blend of practical training on business startup and real time work experience in innovative cowork spaces from the worlds most entrepreneurial capitals.
We are all learning most of the time, but we often don’t recognise this! Many people only feel they have had some development if they have been on a course. Courses can be a great way to develop people, though they can be expensive and people are not always able to put what they have learned into practice when they come back to the work place.
In this on demand webinar, Developing People with the 70/20/10 Model, Jayne McPhillimy has introduced different ways of recognising, and therefore encouraging the development of your people through a range of interventions.
These interventions are often more effective than a traditional course approach and are invariably a more cost effective option.
At the end of this practical on demand webinar recording, you will:
Understand the 70/20/10 Model for Learning & Development and how this approach could support the development of the people in your business.
Widen the scope for what is considered to be learning and development activity in your business.
Understand how you can use this approach to build a ‘Learning Culture’, where people firstly recognise the learning opportunities around them and then actively seek them out.
Be able to move people away from the idea that learning only happens on a Training Course
This webinar is aimed at all those involved in developing staff from HR Managers to Senior Business Leaders and Managers.
