Tour and Presentation
Today, we had the pleasure of hosting a group of 16-18-year-old business students and their lecturer Neil Hudson, from City of Portsmouth College, one of our local training academies, here at Lakeside. The students, eager to experience the professional environment, were keen to see first-hand what it’s really like to work on a dynamic business campus like ours.
As part of their business course, the students are studying essential topics like marketing, health and safety, and sustainability in business. These areas are critical to understanding how modern companies operate, and we were thrilled to provide them with a comprehensive look at how we manage our site and integrate these principles into our daily operations.
The visit kicked off with a warm welcome and presentations from key members of our team:
Each team member provided valuable insights into their respective areas of responsibility, covering everything from facility management to the importance of sustainable practices in our operations, along with how we promote the campus which included showing the students our new Lakeside Video.
After the presentations, the students were taken on a guided tour of the campus, where they had the opportunity to explore our wide range of facilities and amenities available to those working at the site. It was a great chance for the students to see how a well-managed business environment operates on a day-to-day basis and how each department plays a role in ensuring smooth, sustainable operations.
The visit was a fantastic opportunity to engage with the local community and support the students as they take important steps toward their future careers. We hope that by sharing our knowledge and experience, we’ve helped them make connections between their coursework and real-world applications.
At Lakeside, we’re committed to fostering local talent and providing opportunities for the next generation of business professionals to learn, grow, and succeed. We look forward to more collaborations like this one and wish all the students the best of luck as they continue on their educational journey!
