Hartpury University's career support is delivered through the Employability, Skills and Careers team, which helps students from their first day with professional, work and skills-based workshops, careers advice and guidance, employability and enterprise support, and help with finding placements. The team can help students enhance employability skills, talk through career options, sharpen up CVs, write covering letters or practice interview skills. The university holds a database of 3,000 local and national businesses offering work placement opportunities, and voluntary charity and part-time on-site working opportunities are sometimes available. Every Hartpury University student is assigned a Placement Tutor who acts as a central contact throughout any work placements, and students can also meet with the placements team at any time. The careers support uses a 3 Pillars Framework – Explore, Experience, Employable – to build self-awareness, set goals, access career-focused learning within courses, engage in placements, projects and real-world opportunities, and develop key skills to prepare for a confident transition into work or further study. The success of the careers support within the Innovation, Careers and Enterprise unit has been recognised, with careers workshop engagement increasing by 84%. Hartpury graduates are highly employable, with 95% in employment, further study or other purposeful activity within 15 months.
