Wednesday, 03 July 2013

Five students have come to spend their summer holidays at CPL!

Hannah Williams and Sean Breeze are spending several weeks at CPL Online for work experience; plus Joe Lewis, Jennifer Birss and Jacob Baylis are back again to lend a hand to the support and animation teams.

Sean Breeze has been given an eight-week position in the CPL Training Group with the IT team, where he will be helping out with technical issues. Antony Millar, IT director at CPL, said: "I'm certain Sean will benefit massively from being part of our team - we manage a range of systems for CPL and our clients so the skills he will hone will be indispensable for future work."

CPL Online encourages young, talented people to work with them, and over 60% of the company's workforce consists of people under the age of 30. Joe is approaching his final year at Hull University this September, along with Jennifer who has just finished her degree in Human Geography at the University of Leeds - and very recently obtained at 2:1 (congratulations Jen!). Both students have already spent Easter, Christmas and summer breaks at Bridge Court before and it has helped them to how to apply themselves within the working world.

Joe Lewis said: "It's great to be part of a growing sector, and when I come to CPL Online I gain invaluable skills by being involved in a young and invigorating workplace."

Jacob, from Teeside University and Hannah from UCLAN have already spent a few weeks at CPL Online already and are settling fine with the animation team. They are both currently helping to illustrate e-learning courses this summer.
