We are delighted to introduce 𝗥𝗘𝗩𝗜𝗧𝗔𝗟𝗜𝗦𝗘 – A Webinar series for experienced professionals looking to return to work or update their career ‘toolkit’.

𝗔𝗯𝗼𝘂𝘁 𝗥𝗲𝘃𝗶𝘁𝗮𝗹𝗶𝘀𝗲
Revitalise is the latest collaboration between Taste 4 Success Skillnet and the Food Industry Training Unit, University College Cork (UCC) to support talent reactivation in the Irish Food (and related) sectors. Funding is provided by Taste4Success Skillnet through the Skillnet Ireland SKillsCONNECT programme and is fully funded for eligible participants who can access the weekly webinars through #FoodlineUCC.

Revitalise builds on our award-winning #Rejuvenate programme. Rejuvenate has supported women returners since 2019 to return to successful careers. #Revitalise is open to all experienced professionals, not just women, who wish to return to work, those who have faced a change in their work (planned or unexpected), or those who want to update their career toolkit.

Revitalise webinars will run Every Thursday and Friday at lunchtime from 12:30 – 14:00 Irish time on the FoodlineUCC platform. Each week either Lorraine Shine or I will bring you through some tools and activities to help you develop your career, and we will be joined by guest speakers who can offer some practitioner or specialist aspects of career development. Interested attendees can attend as many of the 10 webinars as they wish.

The programme Starts Thursday, 2nd March, where we will introduce the idea of career development, why is is essential to continuously develop as a professional and what employers look for to demonstrate professional development. We will also examine how change impacts us, personally and professionally. We will be joined by Dearbhail O’Callaghan, who will discuss her research into the individual experience of change.

The programme will then consider the following topics:
