Today we’ve enjoyed hosting an open day & interviews for the students who took part in our placement course with @ManMetRise earlier in the year.
They are applying to join @sharpfuturesPOD & gain paid work in Manchester’s creative digital sector 🎥🎬🐝
We enjoyed attending the @MCCWorkSkills#digitalskills network meeting at the @HideOut_YZ this afternoon, great to hear from fellow training providers in the city 💻🐝
& best of luck to @morrison_elaine on her retirement! 🎉
⭕️ MAKE IT FOR REAL ❌
We are proud to announce that we are introducing an innovative package of benefits designed to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds access higher education.
UA92, the university academy co-founded by Gary Neville is to help young people from disadvantaged backgrounds to access higher education.
He told #BBCBreakfast why they're launching the initiative ⬇️

I strongly believe that all young people deserve equal opportunities.
Today @UA92MCR our ‘Make It For Real’ campaign launches to help give those opportunities in education for disadvantaged young people.

Brian continues "A lot of the skills I have learnt in the first two years at Uni I have been able to put to work in this placement. I would absolutely recommend this to all students! I think it's been brilliant it really has"
The ‘Creative Digital Incubator’ Course with @manmetrise has now come to an end for this year. The students utilised everything they have learnt to create digital portfolios that showcase their skills and experience. I think you’ll agree that they’ve done a great job.
This was followed be an inspiring workshop from @sharpfutures Senior Web Developer Ihtezaz, which has provided the students with all the tools they need to develop their own online portfolio
It’s been another action packed day for the students on our @manmetrise Creative Digital Incubator course.
They have taken a deep dive into the world of #instagramstories in another great master class with @wildandform.
Today on our 'Creative Digital Incubator' course the students learnt about pre-production, content planning & scriptwriting from @sharpproject tenant @FreshrbCIC
Thank you for a brilliant workshop Babz, a great introduction to the video production process!
