Employment Partnership
Aim of our partnerships
An essential element of our success relies on solid partnerships with local employers and companies. These partnerships give taiohi the opportunity to explore and learn about new career paths.
Our staff engage with employers to understand their specific workforce needs and identify suitable participants to match those needs. Regular employer and stakeholder events take place to enable feedback on the IBA programme, to share success stories and allow IBA to thank our partners for their support.
Our strong post-pastoral support (PPS) helps ensure any employment opportunities are sustainable, equipping young people with the skills and confidence that employment brings, whilst also supporting local employers.
