Graduate Development Programmes

 

We have developed our specialism in designing and delivering graduate development programmes for the past 9 years. From stand-alone high impact experiences to 16 month programmes that are integrated with scheme qualifications and placements, we can create a programme that suits both your business and graduate growth ambitions.

We ensure that our innovative graduate projects are embedded in the workplace, allowing for a long-lasting return on investment.

 

Our graduate programmes are tailored for the scheme and organisation, most often delivered as a blended programme involving face to face, virtual sessions, self-directed digital resources, and scheme specific application tasks.

Over many years we have designed and delivered organisation wide graduate inductions, one-off introductory days, vital skills support while learning on the job, to scheme exit interview preparation.

We place high value on a holistic approach that supports personal and professional development, enabling graduates to create valuable networks that will spearhead their desired progression and develop their careers.

Our pedigree includes a number of large UK clients, such as: United Utilities, Network Rail, XPO Logistics and Saint-Gobain.

We also have facilitators who are experienced in delivering to a graduate audience, and we specialise in making learning engaging and fun.
