On this work placement I assisted in running IT taster sessions for 15–16-year-olds to provide them with an insight into the experience, qualifications and job roles within the IT industry. I was required to plan and prepare the sessions, set up equipment to present the sessions and for the students to test out some equipment for themselves. This included a VR system and headset, an AR system and headset and example programming. I gained a good understanding of the importance of planning and preparation for a successful event.
