Applications are now open for PwC's latest Assured Skills Academy, with 20 training places available in Data and Analytics tech.
The pandemic has led to a record number of redundancies among young people and many are taking the time to train or retrain into new careers. PwC is now offering 20 new training places on its Data and Analytics Assured Skills Academy scheme, with training provided by Belfast Met.
The scheme is open to anyone with a 2:2 degree in any discipline, even if it's not relevant to the field, and will give participants eight weeks of training and an industry-recognised qualification. Those who complete the training will also be guaranteed a job interview for a role at PwC Belfast.
