We are delighted to partner with Common Purpose to deliver these two life-changing leadership programmes - Partnership Incubator and Future Leader Experience - for our students. These Leadership courses are part of our College Employability Programme and have been designed to help you develop key leadership skills and intercultural awareness, whilst you learn from a range of inspiring leaders from across the public, private and 3rd sectors.
Common Purpose is a global not-for-profit, with 30 years’ experience developing inclusive leaders who can cross boundaries. Their programmes are highly experiential, exposing students to different perspectives, places, organizations and challenges – often at a global scale. Underpinned by robust methodologies, thought leadership and learning frameworks, they give thousands of students every year the skills and experiences to become leaders who can make an impact – at work and in society.
Students who complete College Employability Programme courses will receive digital badges and certificates to showcase their achievements to employers.
