Sir Ian Wood House

Veterans, reservists, adult cadet volunteers and service family members play a vital role in many of our teams at Wood. Wood's Armed Forces Network are hosting this event to join forces with other companies to build an employer's forum within the North East of Scotland to promote Veterans, Reservists and Military Families and the contributions they can make to our businesses. This will be our second event and will focus on Veterans. The event will take the form of round table discussion followed by a panel Q&amp;A with organisations which support the transition of veterans into civilian employment. The round table topics will be focused around: <ul><li>Internal mechanisms employers may consider to support veterans i.e. highlighting skills, translating skill sets, tailored employment pathways</li></ul><ul><li>External mechanisms employers may consider to support veterans i.e. signing the armed forces covenant, progression through the Employers Recognition Scheme</li></ul>The event will conclude with the opportunity for informal networking with all attending delegates. The Highland Reserve Forces and Cadets Association have also been invited to attend once again if you would like to find out more about the <a href="https://www.armedforcescovenant.gov.uk/" target="_blank" data-msys-clicktrack="0" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer">Armed Forces Covenant</a>, and how to achieve the Bronze, Silver or Gold Employer Recognition Award. This event is free to attend and open to anyone who has an interest in supporting the Armed Forces community or just wants to find out more.
