James Shuttleworth, the college’s Business Innovation Manager, reflects below:
“It was a pleasure to be part of the Bury Means Business event and highlight the range of support Bury College provides to employers including apprenticeships, T Level placements and supported internships alongside the Greater Manchester Business Innovation programme. As a college, we’re proud to play an active role in driving local growth and encouraging the skills that businesses need to thrive.”
