Redweb will join 60 other UK agencies on 10 October in supporting Digital Day – an initiative to spread the word about digital career paths to schools and their students. This is a nationwide event organised by BIMA, the UK body that represents the digital and interactive industry.
Digital Day (or D-Day) involves each participating agency sending staff into a school on 10/10. These employees will help students to tackle digital challenges, provide insight based on professional experiences, and raise the awareness of career opportunities within the industry.
Redweb is paired with two schools for its part in the event: Avonbourne School in Bournemouth and The Purbeck School in Wareham.
