GoJobsite.co.uk has announced a major new agreement with the Engineering and Technology Board (ETB) - a national partnership to promote science, engineering and technology.
GoJobsite will provide job-searching facilities through the ETB website at www.etechb.co.uk and ETB will provide users of GoJobsite with science, engineering and technology content (SET).
ETB was formed to tackle the significant yet unaddressed needs of the UK''s science, engineering and technology industry, and to create a unified platform and voice. Central to this is the formation of a more inclusive, unified and coherent structure for the science, engineering and technology community, which better represents professionals in the field.
GoJobsite recognises the agreement to be both a crucial offering to it''s SET users and a valuable service to ETB''s community. GoJobsite managing director, Keith Potts commented: We were impressed by ETB''s plans and their vision of a unified SET community all the way through to captains of industry. This, combined with their current close links to business and industry, academia and the profession, made the partnership ideal for us
The fit between the two parties is perfect and GoJobsite is very proud to be part of such a crucial initiative in taking the SET community forwards.
This move represents an initial step in ETB''s plans to expand its web offering to include jobs, career advice, teacher support, news and articles. Through an easy to use and comprehensive online destination, ETB is helping to connect all those involved in SET, including professionals or children.
Partnering with GoJobsite ties in perfectly with out aim of connecting the entire SET community, especially thorough the web. We will bring the best online players in the science, engineering and technology world together under one virtual roof. We believe that GoJobsite, with its comprehensive span across this community - and its ambitious plans for the future - makes for an ideal partner for our current and future community, commented Adrian Talbot, Director E-Services, ETB.
About ETB
ETB is a national partnership to promote science, engineering and technology. The driving force behind this partnership, which comprises business, industry, the profession and education, is our desire to ensure a supply of appropriately skilled individuals to meet the needs of business and industry, both now and into the future. We will achieve this by ensuring that the role of science, engineering and technology, at the heart of the UK economy, is fully recognised.
ETB was formed to tackle the significant yet unaddressed needs of the UK''s science, engineering and technology industry, and to create a unified platform and voice. Central to this is the formation of a more inclusive, unified and coherent structure for the science, engineering and technology community, which better represents professionals in the field.
ETB will not compete with bodies already working in the promotion of engineering, but will bring the major players together to creatively channel existing resources. To achieve this, ETB will forge strategic partnerships with business and industry, academic and training bodies, and with the engineering profession itself.
ETB is financially supported by professional partners, the registration fees of a quarter of a million registered engineers, and industry sponsorship. ETB also receives core and project funding from the Department for Trade and Industry.
