Student Leadership Training Programme
Over the year there will be various resources that we will make available on this section. Most importantly this will include a range of training opportunities that are designed to enable you to help develop your own personal employability but these opportunities will also have a key focus on action that you can take to impact the experience of your student members (for our committee members or community leaders) or fellow course mates (for any school and course reps).
We are excited to announce the following training opportunities that are currently available. Please select the training that you are interested in and be sure to sign up via the event platform to secure your place. Some of these training sessions will be repeated throughout the year but please note that they are on as a first come first served basis.
Lottie, your Vice President of Activities, has been working hard to launch an exciting new recognition scheme. Under this initiative, if you complete both committee training and attend at least two Student Leadership Training sessions, you will earn an official certicicate that will be added to your university transcript.
