KPMG Work Ready Workshop

On Tuesday, 60 Year 12 Business and Economics students took part in a KPMG Work Ready Hackathon. The all day event was delivered by the Transformation Trust and KPMG mentors. The students worked in groups and took part in activities that covered:

• Understanding key emerging technologies
• What does a KPMG consultant do?
• Coding and mixed reality
• Responding to real life business briefs/ client scenario
• Learning about the different careers at KPMG and what role would best suit them.
• Networking with KMPG volunteers offering insight into what it’s like to work at the company
• Pitching to an audience

They finished the day pitching to Coca Cola about a way of recycling their products and improving sustainability. The students all engaged and really enjoyed the day. Students also had the opportunity to speak to the KPMG mentors about securing apprenticeships and employment.
