Are you thinking of applying for a PAL opportunity? We recommend reading our guide first.
Are you thinking of advertising a PAL opportunity, or does someone in your team wish to apply for one? You can find a comprehensive walk-through of what’s involved in our guide for managers.
If there isn’t currently a PAL day which interests you, why not register your interest in doing one in the future? Just email hr.learning@lse.ac.uk, providing your name, department and any areas of the School or types of work you’re especially interested in. You can then be visible to any managers who are thinking of arranging an opportunity – they may even be able to tailor something specifically with you in mind.
