How does the Welsh language work for young people?
2016-09-29 | Cardiff, Cardiff
Welsh Government is calling on the support of professionals like you to help them engage young people in the next Real Conversation about the real and perceived opportunities and/or barriers to using the Welsh language in the world of work.
The event is a fantastic opportunity for young people to meet local employers and business leaders to discuss current opportunities to use the language to gain employment. It will also provide an opportunity for young people to speak directly with decision makers to understand what employers expect from young people and what language skills they are really looking for to help their business be successful.
Customers appreciate being able to receive all types of services in their own language and this often translates into increased loyalty to a particular company or business.
Organisations in Wales such as councils and hospitals, need people with Welsh language skills, as they must provide English and Welsh services to the people of Wales.
If you work with young people who have Welsh language skills, please bring a group to this event so that they can hear how they can help all types of business or companies with their knowledge and skills. Similarly, if you work with young people who are keen to start learning Welsh, they too will have an interest in this conversation so they can be persuaded of the career advantages of being bilingual.
The Welsh Government has a vision of one million people speaking Welsh by 2050. Young people will play a crucial role in helping the Government to fulfil this vision, and Welsh Government wants to ensure that they are equipped with the skills and attitude to fulfil their potential, whatever future career choices they make. Welsh Government can only do that by hearing young people’s views first hand.
Welsh Government is looking to engage young people aged between 14-25 from a range of backgrounds.
You are invited to bring along a group of young people to participate in this event.
To discuss group bookings, please email realconversation@wales.gsi.gov.uk
