We work in collaboration with employers to shape customised programmes that meet specific business needs.

- Apart from providing you with money, a part-time job can provide you with experience to add to your CV. You will develop skills such as time-keeping, learning how to deal with colleagues, working as part of a team, problem solving and commercial awareness. Part-time work could provide experience in a field that you want a career in, helping convince employers you are serious about that career path.

Through either paid or voluntary work placements, the module will help you develop essential transferable skills for your future employability.
