Visitors to the Recruitment & Growth Hub will be offered free Business Mentoring consultations, the chance to attend valuable seminars around building a culture of business growth and retention, and the opportunity to speak directly with BCITO Training Advisors and Business Development teams.
Additional features on offer to the 6,000+ visiting industry professionals include:
- 3 full days of industry education and learning with free to attend industry led CPD and LBP accredited seminars
