Professional Development Programmes

Destination Success 2025 is Coming!

Join us at this in person, interactive 3-day programme designed to help you map out your journey to success, whether that is employment or further study and build confidence in your abilities. 

Through games, group activities and experiential learning you will explore how to become the best version of yourself, how to navigate others and how to get things done efficiently, before putting it all together, so you can sell your skills and abilities in whatever you choose to do in life. Come away from the course with a clear understanding of how to sell yourself through your CV and a deep understanding of what you can offer future employers. 

The Destination Success Bootcamp which will run in May 2025 and represents an exciting new investment in the personal and professional development of our students at the University of Kent. The programme will be delivered by Kate Gardner, of Gardner Training & Consultancy with input from the Careers and Employability team to ensure you have access to tailored expert advice on your CV and interview techniques.
