Cardiff Award

The Cardiff Award enables students to develop key employability skills and attributes, giving them a competitive edge over their peers.

The Award prepares participants for the graduate recruitment process and replicates key elements of the process. The programme is self-managed, meaning students make choices that fit with their own development and career pathway.
