Springpod is an amazing platform, useful to a wide age group: whether you're a High School student or a University student. It is extremely useful! There is a lot being offered to you for free.
You can gain work experience, look out for events such as open evenings/days and get careers advice all in one place! I highly recommend you or your little ones get a hold of such opportunities as soon you can.
I thoroughly enjoyed my 2 weeks with Springpod who bring one of the most enjoyable and informative work experiences to their platform. They made it easy with the timings scheduled so I could attend my online classes as well as complete my courses.
I have heard from so many employees from various jobs within one sector and that is amazing with the use of the questions that we can write. So a massive thank you to Springpod which even in this hard times have bought such amazing content to offer.
