A reminder that the deadline for the Westminster Employability Award is 1 May 2025.
The WEA allows you to boost your CV and stand out to employers by accessing key employability activities and resources. By taking part, you can gain a digital badge for LinkedIn, an e-certificate signed by the Vice Chancellor, and much more!
Students who complete a level of the award by 1st May will be invited to our Employability Awards Celebration event taking place on Tuesday 17th June 2025. We will be celebrating your success! This event will include a 3-course meal and lots of entertainment!
You can also win a financial prize by taking part in the Award! All prizes will be announced at the celebration event.
