The three-day ‘Graduates First’ programme is designed to guide recent graduates to their dream roles. The course is ideal for individuals who have recently graduated and are looking for support with career planning and realising their next steps. 

Bradford College will host the informative support and training sessions at the Advanced Technology Centre (ATC) and virtually. On day one, attendees with learn how to write a CV, complete application forms, and get tips on interview skills.

Day two delivers sessions on career planning, personal SWOTs, learning about an entrepreneurial mindset in the workplace, commercial awareness, social media for promotion, networking, and knowledge, and perfecting an elevator pitch.

The entry criteria for the free programme are that applicants must:

  • Be a graduate (or have graduated in the last five years).
  • Live in the West Yorkshire region (can have graduated from any UK university).
