Support Student Modules
Could you benefit from having a motivated and enthusiastic student in your classroom or organisation for up to 70 hours? Or maybe you already work with one of our students and want to encourage them to further develop their employability skills? If so our Career Development Module can help.
Hosting a Career Development module placement can :
- help you gain a fresh perspective
- give you a chance to share your good practice
- increase your opportunities for staff development
Student employees or volunteers
Students will contribute proactively to meet and enhance the aims of your organisation.
You can advertise an opportunity for a student through our website
