🚨 Too often, young people are expected to prove workplace experience before they've had the chance to build it.

Then, they're expected to progress quickly without the confidence and support needed to thrive.

Our latest research, Bridging the Gap: Supporting a New Generation of Leaders, explores the barriers many young people face as they transition from education into employment, and progressing further as aspiring leaders.

📊 The findings are clear: the challenge isn't ambition. It's access to the confidence, support and practical workplace skills needed to succeed.

In response, we're proud to launch the NEW CMI Future Leaders Academy 📚

Built around the lived experiences of young people and informed by employer needs, these programmes help learners build confidence and the essential soft skills needed to succeed at work.
