I wanted to take this opportunity during #tlevel celebration week to thank all our #employers who have supported our 1st ever T Level students this year. We look forward to continuing to strengthen our existing partnerships, bringing #industry & #curriculum even closer together
We visited the @OfficialUoM Geek Centre & National Graphene Institute to kick start our partnership with the Faculty of Science & Engineering for the #labscience and potentially #engineering#tlevels as well. The UoM have already taken 4 #digital T Level students on #placement
Well done to all nominees and winners at the #studentawards last night, especially Tom who was nominated for the #tlevel category based on the continuous outstanding feedback we receive about him from his placement employer @Spt_Initiative!
'Team #tlevel engagement' speaking to applicants & their parents this evening about our amazing employer partners @TheMcrCollege & answering questions on industry placements for #construction#engineering
Now that they have the first 2 weeks of #placement under their belt @LBGplc, 2 of our #Digital#TLevel students have presented their initial findings to myself & their workplace mentors for 15 minutes. I was in awe of their enthusiasm & I can't wait to see what they learn next!
Thanks to Kieran for talking to our #Digital#TLevel Transition students yesterday about the industry and how you got to where you are. The students were really inspired by what you had to say & they learnt really valuable information about #softwareengineering! @wiseupnetworks
Thank you to Colin & Dave from IDT, for helping to prepare our transition students for the new T level in Digital Support Services which we launch in September 2022. Get in touch to find out more! @TheMcrCollege@DigitalTmc@TMC_TLEVELS#WeAreIndustryExcellenceTMC
Another fab @wiseupnetworks session this week. Maisie, a perinatal mental health #socialworker for the #NHS & a qualified therapist, gave some invaluable industry insights to our #healthcare transition #students. Thank you for taking some time out of your busy job to talk to us!
Thanks @wiseupnetworks for providing another 2 great industry speakers for our Building Services Engineering #TLevel#students. Neil and Frank were brilliant in sharing their insights into the industry & the students loved being able to get answers to their burning questions!
Huge thanks to our alumni, Joshua Antwi & Sylas Coker and their respective employers, Barclays & Saurer for taking their time to come in and inspire our #TLevel#Digital students about routes into the software development industry!
Time is running out to receive the £1000 employer incentive. If you are interested in hosting a #TLevel student on an extended industry #placement then please get in touch! We have some incredible students in #Digital and #Construction and we offer complete wrap-around support
Last week we arranged for EDEM Care to host a #recruitment day at our Openshaw campus so that our #heathcare students had the opportunity to find paid part-time work in the sector. Employment that is occupationally relevant to their course also doubles as an industry placement!
Our latest Employability blog post is up and this month the theme is around how to get the most out of your Industry Placement. If you are currently a T Level student or maybe a parent of a T Level student you might find this a useful read:

Our 1st yr #TLevel#construction#students on placement @Spt_Initiative are now 13 weeks into their placement with only 6 weeks to go before they stop for the exam period! Looking forward to visiting the office tomorrow to complete their 2nd placement review-they are smashing it!
Thanks to Joe Wood @wiseupnetworks for delivering a fabulous #projectmanagement session to our #digital#tlevel students yesterday! He provided them with real world insight into this job role & an understanding of how PM is a skill that can be applied to anything in life!
We had 2 more fab @WiseUp speakers for our #TLevel Transition students last week: Stephen Chandler who gave great advice on applying to jobs, and Emily Simpson who spoke about her experiences as a paediatric nurse. Thank you both and thank you Wise Up! #workready

''I’m enjoying the documents that I’m reading, like the specs and how they intertwine with the project. It’s really interesting and I feel I’ve learnt so much''
T Levels are perfect for 16–18-year-olds who want to gain UCAS points for university as well as workplace experience, developing skills that teach to you to ‘do the job’, rather than work towards it!
