We recently launched our new  Virtual Classroom  - a programme open to all students between Years 10 and 13 (Years 11 to 14 in Northern Ireland and S3 to S6 in Scotland), which focuses on developing your employability skills and providing an insight into PwC. The programme combines both live and pre-recorded sessions. You’ll also have the chance to engage with a range of PwC ambassadors through the interactive live sessions, whilst enabling the flexibility to watch and listen to the recorded sessions at a time best suited to you each week. The programme launched a few weeks ago but it’s not too late to sign up to the remaining sessions. You can also make the most of the online resources available to access from home.  PwC recognise that you’ll continue to have school or college commitments during this period, so they've made the virtual programme as flexible as possible. Take a look at our  website  for the times and dates for each of the live sessions and how you can sign up. Take

You might be familiar with NCS – a government-funded programme specifically for 16-17 year olds.  It’s designed to help you achieve your potential, get a taste of independence and find the self-belief you need to conquer your future goals.        The good news is that there is still the opportunity for young people to be involved  in our adapted NCS programme  this summer , which is completely  free  of charge. Our aim is to support young people to give 1 million hours of volunteering by getting involved in projects which help to get our local communities back on their feet post lockdown.    You  can find out more and sign up  here .       All year 11s will be eligible to take part in NCS next year, even if they volunteer with us this summer.
