The News section lets you publish regional updates directly to your Jobs Hub page and, if selected, to your linked Workin<location> site.
Use news posts to share workforce updates, Local Jobs Plan activities, skills and training announcements, or anything relevant to your regional community.

Editing, Unpublishing or Restoring a News post
To edit a post:
Go to News
Select the post you want to update and Edit
Make your changes and select Save
To unpublish a post:
Go to News
Select the post
Select Unpublish
Unpublishing removes the post from your Jobs Hub page and your Workin<location> site if it was pushed there. It will sit in an Unpublished state on your full News list.
Restoring a News post:
You will find any deleted items in Trashed, if you have Permanently Deleted, they will not show here and are not recoverable. If you want to restore a News item for any reason, you select Restore from the ellipsis and this will move the item back to your full list in an unpublished state. You can make any amendments and publish again from this page.
Tips for Better News Posts
Be specific. "New apprenticeship program open for <location> residents" outperforms "Exciting news."
Keep it regional. Content that speaks directly to your community gets more engagement than generic updates.
Include a next step. Tell your reader what to do, register, contact someone, or visit a link.
Post regularly. A Jobs Hub that updates frequently builds trust and return visits.
