Get an advantage in the job market!
We're here to help you stand out in a busy job market and secure your next role, as it’s getting harder to compete for jobs after University! There were 140 applicants per graduate job on average in 2025 - that’s numbers straight from the Institute of Student Employers.
Skills Week is coming to Birmingham this June. We're bringing free training and workshops; these exclusive sessions are designed to help you get career-ready and get ahead of the competition.
Join our free workshops. Public speaking, leadership, getting your LinkedIn profile working for you, time management, free photo shoots, and more!
Gone are the days when a degree alone could secure you a career in today’s job market. That’s why we launched Skills Week back in 2022. We started helping students get trained up and career-ready. Since then, we've expanded the programme, training hundreds more 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.
Check out the line-up, book your place - your future self will thank you.
