We're here to help you stand out in a busy job market and secure your next role, as it’s getting harder to compete for jobs after University! There were 140 applicants per graduate job on average in 2025 - that’s numbers straight from the Institute of Student Employers.

We're bringing free training and workshops; these exclusive sessions are designed to help you get career-ready and get ahead of the competition. Gone are the days when a degree alone could secure you a career in today’s job market. That’s why we launched Skills Week back in 2022. We started helping students get trained up and career-ready. Since then, we've expanded the programme, training hundreds more students

Now's the time to invest in yourself. It doesn’t matter what year you’re in or the course you study - every Skills Week session is free and exclusively for UWTSD students. We’ll help you master the fundamentals and take your skills to the next level.
