The National Undergraduate Employability Awards is entering its fifth year, showcasing the outstanding achievements of employers, universities and students in undergraduate employability.
Employer Awards
Our Employer Awards recognise and celebrate the outstanding achievements of companies, large or small, across the UK in undergraduate work experience. In the current climate, it’s essential for students to gain work experience whilst at university and we believe employers who are offering fantastic schemes deserve to be recognised for their efforts.
University Awards
Having worked closely with university placement officers and careers advisers over the past six years, we are only too aware of the hard work and dedication that goes into ensuring students gain the required levels of work experience and employability skills.
Student Awards
The Student Awards reward and recognise the amazing achievements carried out by students and university societies across the UK.
Whether a society has demonstrated a strong commitment to increasing the employability of its members, or a student has made an invaluable impact to a business, our Awards highlight and celebrate the amazing achievements of all.
