Power Up Employer Webinar Series

Aligning industry with education is essential to building a future-ready workforce. By strengthening skills, upskilling existing talent, and responding to change, businesses can continue to grow, adapt, and thrive.

At Weston College, we know how important it is for employers to stay informed about key developments across Further and Higher Education. From new qualifications to policy changes and funding opportunities, understanding what’s happening in education helps businesses make confident, strategic workforce decisions.

That’s why we’ve launched our Employer Webinar Series - designed to keep you in the loop and help you Power Up your workforce. Each session explores timely, employer-focused topics such as the Growth and Skills Levy, Inclusion, and the White Skills Paper, giving you practical insight into how changes in education may impact your business.

Our lunchtime webinars are easy to join and designed to fit around your working day. Simply log in, listen, and ask any questions you may have.

We’re on a mission to shape the future workforce, not only by equipping local people with the skills your industry needs, but by supporting your business to grow, thrive, and strengthen its talent pipeline.

One Message, Different Voices

Take a look at this powerful film made by the staff of Weston College to show how important it is for everyone from different backgrounds to be included. The film shares heartfelt stories and interviews with a diverse group of staff, showing how accepting different identities and backgrounds can make a big difference. Its purpose is to encourage viewers to think about their own biases and work towards making our community more welcoming to all. We invite everyone, regardless of their background, to join us and be a part of our journey toward a more inclusive future.

Halo workplace logo

Our workplace champions the right of staff to embrace all Afro-hairstyles. We acknowledge that Afro-textured hair is an important part of our Black employees’ racial, ethnic, cultural, and religious identities, and requires specific styling for hair health and maintenance. We celebrate Afro-textured hair worn in all styles including, but not limited to, afros, locs, twists, braids, cornrows, fades, hair straightened through the application of heat or chemicals, weaves, wigs, headscarves, and wraps. In this workplace, we recognise and celebrate our colleagues’ identities. We are a community built on an ethos of equality and respect where hair texture and style have no bearing on an employee's ability to succeed.
