Be Future Present

Get involved in the BMet “Be Future/Present” initiative

You could make the world of difference to our students’ future careers by sharing your skills and knowledge and more importantly your time with them.

How can you be future/present?

It may be providing advice or support, offering work experience, or delivering a virtual presentation.

Be the person you needed when starting out and give the spark that ignites a rewarding career – be part of future/present.

There are many ways we can work together to help grow your organisation and ultimately support the regional economy and community to prosper.

We are passionate about working with business and organisations to understand your vision, objectives, challenges and ultimately see how we can work in partnership to develop a solution to help your business.
