“Excellent course. Beyond expectations.”

“More useful than 80% of my lectures.”

– 2015 Global Citizenship Employability Programme attendees

Although there is plenty of information that we will share, our aim in this programme is to explore your ideas with you. We will create opportunities for you to access employers and scenarios that will challenge your expectations. We’ll enjoy learning with you as you get to know your strengths and ambitions. And we’ll guide you and support you in developing your own plan for your future.

“So so SO worthwhile! I have attempted to think about careers and have attended careers events but I have learnt more on this course than anything before!”

“GCEP is a must do course for improving your chances of gaining the job you want in the future.”

2015 Global Citizenship Employability Programme attendees

Thinking about careers for many people can feel quite daunting. Often this is because they haven’t had an opportunity to learn how to manage and plan their career. Without this groundwork, choosing a career can feel like guesswork.

The Global Citizenship Employability Programme uses a series of workshops which build on each other to provide students with the skills and information that they need to take control of their graduate job search.

Reasons You Should Attend GCEP (the Global Citizenship Employability Programme) – Part One

By Weronika Z Benning, on 4 April 2016

“GCEP wasn’t all about learning the tricks to land yourself a job. It helped me understand the graduate jobs market, the recruitment process and my own strengths and aspirations. It taught me a few tricks too!” – 2015 Global Citizenship Employability Programme attendee

Finding a great job is not just about knowing what the employer wants from us, and delivering that. Its also about understanding our own drives, values, strengths and motivations. After all, one person’s perfect job is another person’s mistake.

On the Global Citizenship Employability Programme we will explore the graduate recruitment market, working to understand the employer better and what they are hoping to see in the application and interview process.

Through workshops, discussions and coaching, we will also be exploring aspirations and values developing a better understanding of what working environments and roles will be likely to suit us.
