Communications consultancy launches virtual work experience for students

Thursday 24 December 2020

Liquid has launched a series of virtual work experience sessions for sixth form and university students.

The two sessions, ‘An Introduction to PR’ and ‘An Introduction to Social and Digital’, aim to give students from across the Channel Islands and UK some insight and experience in the communications industry.

Endorsed by the Public Relations and Communications Association (PRCA), the sessions will be hosted virtually by Liquid’s junior team members on 15 and 17 February. 

All students taking part will receive a certificate as proof of the experience. 

“We are very excited to be able to give students the opportunity to gain valuable work experience remotely," Liquid’s Channel Islands director, Lisa Downes, said.

"As a company, we passionately believe in training and development and support school leavers and university students each year, through mentoring, placements and our own graduate recruitment programme, Source. 

“We appreciate that the pandemic has made it difficult for many young people to secure invaluable work experience. This is our way of providing guidance and advice as they make important career choices, as well as something tangible to put on their CV.” 

Students can book their place on the work experience sessions via Eventbrite, for ‘An Introduction to PR’ here and ‘An Introduction to Social and Digital’ here.
