We are excited to announce our Skills Week program is coming to Cardiff for the first time – and you’re invited! 
 
You can attend tailored sessions and workshops built around helping you get career-ready. 
  
From Tuesday 7 May to Saturday 11 May, you can join us at free workshops to help you improve and develop your skills to help in university and in your future careers.   

What is Skills Week?  

Skills Week is a week-long programme of workshops all focused on helping you develop your skills for university and for your future careers, further helping you increase your employability - you’ll even earn certificates after certain sessions.  

“I loved the courses, super clear. They were very dynamic and friendly”

– Student feedback

You can attend as many sessions as you’d like – whether it’s just one or all of them, and they take place between and after your classes – so it’s easy to fit around your studies.  

How Do I Get Involved?  

One of the great things about Skills Week is that it’s completely free! You will need to book your place to secure your spot for the sessions you want to go to

The full line-up is available on our website at
