We hope you’ve been well since we last reached out about the Global Citizens Challenge! We’re currently inviting youth organizations to take part in our Virtual Exchange PenPal Sessions, a chance for students to connect with peers from different countries through small-group, guided conversations. 🌍
These sessions help young people build confidence, share perspectives, and develop global awareness in a meaningful way.
💬 Past participants have described it as “amazing hearing different cultures and realising we’re in this together.”
Our next session is May 5, and spaces are limited.
We’d love to invite your students to join, would you be open to sharing this opportunity with your community?
Scan the QR code, spaces are limited so be sure to sign up asap!
If you only had 10 seconds to introduce yourself, would you be ready?
Scan the QR code at the end if you’re feeling like you need some help on that pitch, an important skill. We might have the program for you! 😉

Networking - something we do every day, and yet it is one of the biggest barriers that stop us from securing the contacts and building the relationships we need to open doors, secure opportunities, and provide valuable knowledge.
At CareerReady Connect, we break down those barriers, talking you through what networking is, how you can build a network for yourself, and the tools to help you best prepare and present.
