Skills Week London is back and with a fresh new line-up of workshops and training all focused on helping you get career-ready.

But who better to tell you about Skills Week than Inna - our Student Opportunities Co-ordinator running the week - so take it away Inna!

Why Should Students Get Involved?

"Skills Week is a great chance to develop practical skills that go beyond the classroom. It helps you build confidence, meet new people, and get inspired about your future career. You can gain hands-on experience, learn from guest speakers and staff, and pick up skills that really make a difference when applying for jobs or internships. It’s also a fun, motivating break from regular studies."

How Can Students Get Involved?

"It’s easy! You can sign up through the Skills Week page on our website, join drop-in sessions, or just pop by our promotional stands on campus outside our purple office."

What Can Students Expect and Look Forward to?

"Interactive workshops, friendly faces, and plenty of “aha!” moments. You’ll leave with new skills, new connections, and maybe even new ideas about your future path. We’ve run several sessions over the past few years, each one focusing on helping students grow personally and professionally. We try to schedule at least one session each day to keep the week engaging. I understand life can get busy, so we also offer online sessions — meaning you won’t need to travel to campus every day."
