Come along to this fantastic free event hosted at Microsoft’s London HQ on Tuesday 10th September to learn all about how it works and how you can get involved!

More about this event
This event is NOT a recruitment event. There will be no recruitment activity at this event of any kind. This is an information and discussion event designed to raise awareness of the FREE training opportunities available to eligible Londoners.
The funding provided to London Digital Jobs & Skills Hub is specifically allocated for helping people who meet the eligibility requirements listed above. If you do not meet these requirements, we are unable to help you and therefore this event probably isn’t worth your time. If you are aware that you do not meet these eligibility requirements, please do not book a ticket for this event. This event has limited capacity, and you would be taking away the opportunity to attend from somebody else who would be benefiting more from the event.
