‘Really helpful’: the AI bootcamps aimed at addressing UK youth unemployment

UK officials have launched a three‑week AI bootcamp in Preston targeting NEETs—young people not in education, employment or training. The pilot provides intensive digital skills training and promises an apprenticeship placement upon completion. Designed to tackle youth unemployment, the scheme partners with local businesses and tech firms to equip participants with practical AI knowledge and work experience.
