School Leavers and Graduates
School Leavers
If you are leaving school and are not quite sure whether University is for you, we have a range of courses that could be right up your street. They provide a serious alternative to going to University at a fraction of the cost.
Perhaps you are taking a gap year before going on to University? A course with Lewis College could give you additional skills and qualifications which would increase your employment opportunities to help you pay your way through your degree – as well as kick start your professional career.
The skills you learn such as report writing will also help your study. We have courses that are great to squeeze into a short time frame and which could make the difference to help you through University both study-wise and financially.
Graduated?
And if you have already graduated one of our top-up courses will enhance your skills and could help you get into the business world much quicker! You will become more employable by marrying your degree with the qualifications gained at Lewis College.
Every type of business needs admin support - and it is a quick way in to enable you to work in a type of business that interests you and where your degree would be beneficial.
For example - perhaps you have a degree in History - which means you are used to doing a lot of research, checking facts, analysing and so on. Companies such as newspapers and magazines would find those skills useful, especially if you can also use computers etc to a business standard at least.
Perhaps your degree is in Sociology - then marketing firms would find that useful as marketing campaigns need to develop their ideas based on socio-economic facts.
You may not start working in the type of job you are really aiming to do within that particular industry - but at least you are through the front door and part of the team. This is just the beginning – and step by step your career would start to develop.
