Complement Your Studies With Skills

Every year thousands of students gain skills and experience through the Union that you often aren't aware you have. Skills that make you more employable and experience that will make you stand out from the crowd.

When you're writing your CV, or applying for a job, this website will help you link to the skills employers are looking for and help you to link to an experience or activity you might have been involved with through the Students'™ Union.
