You won’t believe that there were 140 applicants per graduate job on average in 2024 - that’s numbers straight from the folks at the Institute of Student Employers.

Skills Week is coming to Carmarthen this March to help you become the one who lands that job. We're bringing free training and workshops - these exclusive sessions are designed to help you get career-ready and beat the competition.

Gone are the days when a degree alone could land you a career. That’s why we launched Skills Week back in 2022. We started helping students in London get trained up and career-ready. Since then, we've expanded the programme to Birmingham and Cardiff, training hundreds more students. And now we’re bringing it to Carmarthen.

Carmarthen students, now's the time to invest in yourself. It doesn’t matter what year you’re in or the course you study - every Skills Week session is free and exclusively for UWTSD students. We’ll help you master the fundamentals and take your skills to the next level - you’ll be heads and shoulders above the competition in no time.

Get involved with our free workshops. There will be workshops in public speaking, leadership, getting your LinkedIn profile working for you, time management, free photoshoots, and more. Check out the line-up, book your place - your future self will thank you.
