Time to add 8-9th November to your diaries.

STRIVE is the Bucks Students’ Union annual employability festival, and it’s coming to Nottingham for the first time by merging with NEST (Nottingham Employability & Skills Training)

Throughout the two days, you will get a chance to participate in a condensed programme of practical skills sessions, industry insights from professionals, and networking opportunities with local employers to enhance your professional development.

If you’ve got a business or anything you’d like to promote, you will get a special chance as a Nottingham student to have your very own stall, and sell your products, give out vouchers, and promote your business as you wish!
