how to: Student Life Skills

For ambitious youngsters looking to boost their prospects or for those left jaded by a humdrum curriculum the 'how to: Student Life Skills’ is described as ‘gold dust’ by students and parents alike. With the growing pressure on young people to succeed this unique series of workshops provides both practical and emotional skills to maximise opportunities and inspire personal and professional confidence.

Career-focused talks such as ‘Shine in an interview’ are scheduled alongside practical lessons on how to ‘Cook cheap and healthy food’ and more fundamental life skills such as ‘Fit it all in: get on top of time’. Focussing on 16-23 year olds, the week-long festival of lectures, seminar and workshops offers an engaging and interactive way for students to learn how to get ahead. Fundamental skills such as ‘How To: Have Manners that will open doors for you’, motivational talks, and more eclectic insights including ‘How To Build Your Own Mobile App by Firetech’. The list of speakers spans eminent figures from a whole host of professions. Not only will students have the valuable chance to meet high fliers such as style critic and writer Stephen Bayley, former BBC journalist Anastasia Baker and work experience whizz Robin Kennedy, but they will also be able to discover the secrets behind the speakers’ success. 

Whether you’re looking for a boost to help you stand out or a helping hand in realising ambitions, this course provides the vital skills for a prosperous future, with the added bonus of a hands-on approach and a class of like-minded peers.
