UniCollege recently approached various local businesses from a variety of industries to see if they would be interested in assisting our students.
Students completing their National N Diplomas in Business Management, Marketing Management, Legal Secretary & Tourism are required to complete an 18 month practical after their theory component. Before they are awarded their Diplomas, they need to find related work so that they have a chance to put the theory they have learnt into practice.
The response from local corporates was phenomenal and after a fun cocktail/networking session which allowed corporates to meet our students, we are happy to say that 4 students have been successfully placed to date with many more currently in the interview process. Mersen has taken 3 students and Swallow 15 Music School is taking on 1 student.
Says Natalie Franklin, UniCollege Marketing Manager, “We are excited to form these partnerships to give our young students the opportunity to get experience and improve their prospects in the workplace.”
