Young Chamber delivered in Kent by Kent Invicta Chamber of Commerce Richard Lavender Director of KICC Young Chamber Coordinator

What is Young Chamber In 2003 businesses throughout the Country complained that academically students were great, however “Employability Skills” left a lot to be desired Young Chamber was formed to bring business face to face with students in school time. Government funded, 1,000s of schools joined the initiative with business backing.

Progress Government withdrew funding during economic downturn Alternative funding had to be found, – Schools had to raise funds – Businesses were asked for support – Local Government helped in some areas We survive today by one of the above actions at a reduced school participation.

Todays Young Chamber KICC have developed a method of delivering Young Chamber into schools with an adaptable menu to suit the schools needs and budget. We have Chamber business members involved in the delivery and funding. Most important we have the students running Young Chamber in their schools.

How does it work Form a Board of students usually year 11,12,13. Students have to take responsibility, learn to delegate, and work as a team. We normally start by organising a “Business breakfast/lunch” to meet local businesses. Think of projects, organise and run as a business, including raising a business case.

How does it work (cont) Arrange for businesses to visit school and have face to face discussions on work prospects and the soft skills associated with getting a job. The business lunch must be funded by a local business and the students need to meet, present the business case and come away with the funding, (quite an achievement) Lastly this is BY STUDENTS FOR STUDENTS.

Summary We have a number of schools participating, but only respond to school requests for YC. We have 1 Local Authority who funds the 6 schools in their area. We have the support of businesses throughout Kent to assist with this project. If funded correctly the business/education partnership can deliver Employability Skills.
