Hamper giveaway to launch new Skills Mapping website

-

HAVING registered her details with Wexford County Council’s new Skills Mapping website (www.abodoo.com/wexford) Rosanne Lancaster from Gorey was delighted to be announced as the winner of a mouth-watering hamper full of goodies from Taste Wexford.

The hamper was a prize for one of the lucky people who registered their details with the new project, which aims to develop ongoing live skills mapping for the county, aligning Wexford’s growing internatio­nal business profile with the talent the county has to offer. The initiative will leverage Abodoo’s technology in order to identify the skills that exist within the county, and enable greater investment in those areas that will attract employment.

Head of Enterprise with Wexford County Council Liz Hore was delighted to hand over the prize to a grateful Rosanne.

‘I had seen the competitio­n on Instagram and thought this was a great opportunit­y for me in progressin­g my career opportunit­ies in Wexford,’ said Rosanne, a graphic designer. ‘I just followed the link and registered. I think the incentive is a really good idea; building up a database of skills for the county to help attract investment.’

Speaking about the project Liz said ‘We hope to see people really make use of the site. The more that register the more detailed picture we can paint of the wealth of skills the county has to offer.’

Another Taste Wexford Hamper will be up for grabs as a prize in support of this initiative. It only takes a few minutes to submit your skills as a worker in County Wexford, and just a couple of minutes longer to register for the new employment opportunit­ies within Wexford.

To win, simply register your skills and experience on the Wexford Skills Map, tag a friend on Twitter who should register their skills, and share this post: “I’ve Just registered with Wexford County Council’s Skills Mapping Project! You can register here www.abodoo.com/wexford ” with the hashtag #LifetheWex­fordWay.’ Make sure you don’t forget the hashtag if you want to be in with a chance to win!
