The Logistics Academy will give students the chance to work with local companies through a series of internships and mentoring programmes and employers have been urged to get on board to ensure they benefit too. Businesses involved with the Logistics Academy will be able to access a pool of newly-skilled workers to help their own growth plans and benefit from the exposure gained through running a number of masterclasses, warehouse tours and a place on the Career Ready advisory board.
Assistant Principal at Northampton College, James Whybrow, said: The UK logistics industry is facing a series of challenges which are affecting the ability of the sector to grow and develop as quickly as it might.
