Giving back at NCC Group....
The four elements of the programme consist of: A giving back day Building on our initial pilot in prior year, we extended our Giving back day across the globe – offering colleagues one day’s paid leave per annum to donate time to a charity or an approved community organisation of their choice. Colleagues can do this individually or as a team exercise. Matched giving Our matched giving enables colleagues to request matched funding up to £500 or local equivalent once per financial year to approved non-profit organisations, increasing the impact of colleague time, donations and participation in fundraising initiatives. Our global Giving Back programme is designed to enable colleagues to choose how they play their part in ensuring local communities benefit from our presence. It also enables colleagues the opportunity to share their skills and expertise to support broader societal initiatives to make the digital world safer and more secure for all.
Giving Back colleague resource group Our colleague resource group brings together a global network of local representatives to share ideas and resources to become more active in their local communities. Sponsorship initiatives In addition to colleague-led initiatives, we are involved in several sponsorship programmes enabling us to give something back and secure a better future for all, from local sports teams kits, to investing in future cyber skills development programmes. Where possible, we encourage colleagues to actively participate in these initiatives adding to the time we invest in supporting good causes.
“With the growing reliance on connected devices, it is increasingly important that NCC Group as a key member of the cyber security industry, encourages young people and those looking to reskill, to understand what career opportunities exist and how they can keep themselves and others safe. “We work with several organisations to do that by providing training and awareness sessions such as a “day in the life of” as well as opportunities for work placements and internships. The students and adults who have engaged with us have had a great attitude and commitment and this has been reflected in our very popular and successful work placement initiative.” Colin Gillingham, Director of Professional Services
