The Employability & Skills Team
The Employability & Skills Team have been in operation for nearly 14 years supporting schools and colleges with their work experience programmes across East Sussex.
The Challenge
Whilst it was a great tool in the beginning, over time the technology moved forward but unfortunately their database did not, which then became an area of the service that let them down.
They needed an up to date, secure system that would not only be easier for schools and employers to use, but also reduce some of the administrative burden within the team. That’s where the Edazoo Team came in.
The Solution
Edazoo delivered a secure Work Experience Management Tool designed to support:
• The management of multiple placements across East Sussex
• Consistent compliance and documentation through built-in forms and standardised workflows- no more paper!
• Digital agreements signing really simple for students and parents
• Real time tracking for schools and colleges
• Feedback from employers to support the young person’s next steps
