Education
Can you offer work experience to high calibre students?
Lewisham Southwark College is keen to partner with large and small businesses for placement opportunities that will ensure future graduates have the skills and experience the capital needs.
Building on our reputation as a provider of high quality vocational education, in September 2018 we are launching an exciting raft of new Higher Education (HE) courses at our state-of-theart Southwark Campus on The Cut. As with all our courses, work experience forms a vital part of our HE programmes, so we are looking to partner with businesses who can offer placement opportunities to our degree-level students.
By partnering with us, you will have access to high calibre individuals who can bring their talent, specialist skills and energy to your business over a period of weeks or months – and may even become a permanent asset to your organisation. At the same time, we’re keen to work with businesses who’d like to contribute to our HE curriculum and course design, or would welcome the opportunity to present to our degree-level students on their area of business.
In addition to our HE provision, we are also looking to build on our thriving work experience programme at Further Education (FE) level. Businesses across a huge range of industries – from hospitality to construction, and beauty to digital media – can host a student from as little as one day to a maximum of ten days. This enables you to benefit from an
extra pair of hands while boosting a young person’s employability skills and confidence. In return for your partnership, we can offer very competitive access to our central London meeting and conferencing facilities – as well as the chance to help provide a stream of wellqualified graduates for the future benefit of the capital’s workplace.
To find out more, contact Jonathan.Fell@LSCollege.ac.uk for HE placements or Nupur.Bhandari@LSCollege.ac.uk for FE placements.
