We also offer a comprehensive range of skills training sessions on a wide variety of employability topics. Many sessions count towards The Exeter Award - an achievement award unique to the University of Exeter that gives you recognition for the activities that you take part in outside of your studies and helps to develop a range of skills to take forward into the world of work. 

YES!

The 'YES!' e-learning courses guides you through the process of identifying your skills and strengths, exploring your options, and successfully finding and applying for opportunities.

Topics include - ‘Explore your options’, ‘Find opportunities’, ‘CVs and cover letters’, ‘Application forms’, ‘Interviews’, ‘LinkedIn’ and ‘Resilience’. 

Each topic has been specifically tailored towards Business School students, with separate courses for undergraduate and postgraduate students.
