Answered by Sam Gyimah
The Careers & Enterprise Company (CEC) is continuing to make excellent progress towards transforming the provision of careers, enterprise and employer engagement experiences for young people. The South East Local Enterprise Partnership is one of 36 Local Enterprise Partnerships across England participating in the Enterprise Adviser Network (EAN). As of May 2016 the EAN has 60 Enterprise Coordinators and 400 Enterprise Advisers working with schools and colleges.
As the CEC is an independent organisation and we do not hold detailed information about its discussions with other organisations, we suggest contacting the company directly for information on discussions it has held with the South East Local Enterprise Partnership. The CEC can be contacted at info@careersandenterprise.co.uk.
