In order to ensure you reach students across the region, you will be offered the opportunity to utilize our Video Conference facilities. The Careers Centre will organise the venue, ensure all the technical links are in place and promote the presentation to students through the student newsletter, this website and Facebook pages. All you will need to do is turn up on the day.
Work experience placement
If you are interested in hosting a student work experience placement we can work with you to develop the placement, advertise it and collate applications to support your interview process.
A named member of our academic staff will remain in contact with both you and the student throughout the placement to review progress and ensure a quality experience for both you and the student.
