CLIC Sargent is looking for students to represent their university by becoming a ‘Student Big Wig’ and help promote Wig Wednesday.

They need Student Big Wigs to use their great networking skills to get the word out around campus about Wig Wednesday (on 22nd May), encouraging as many people as possible to get their wig on for the day. By doing so you will help raise vital funds for children and young people with cancer.

Teach Abroad Scholarship

In response to the rise in Graduate unemployment and the continuing weakness in the
domestic graduate job market, we have developed a Graduate TEFL Programme. TEFL is the acronym for Teaching English as a Foreign Language, and there is a tremendous global demand for trained TEFL teachers.

As a Social Enterprise, our profits are re-invested back into providing employment and
training opportunities, and we are therefore able to offer a number of Full Scholarships onto the Programme (which usually costs £529.00) each year. Although primarily aimed at unemployed Graduates, Undergraduates are also eligible to apply for a scholarship nd Final Year students in particular are encouraged to apply.

In order to be considered for the next round of Scholarships, please send your CV and
Cover Letter ASAP.
