EVENT INFORMATION
Careers in a post-Covid world
The immediate impact of the Covid-19 pandemic on the economy in general and on specific sectors has been widely reported, but what medium to long-term effects can we anticipate for careers and employment? Will the nature of work and the expectations of employers be changed forever? What predictions for the future of work have been accelerated or impeded by the crisis? How will the career prospects of various groups of workers be affected and what can be done to support them? In this NICEC Network Meeting, we will bring together a panel of speakers to provide insights from their work that will help us to discuss these questions.
