Published: 23/09/2024
Do you want to grow personally, academically and professionally?

We’ve partnered with the internationally recognised charity, Grit, to offer you the opportunity to join our Pathways to Progress workshops. Get access to experienced and skilled coaches in sessions designed to help your personal growth, and help you get the most out of your university experience.
This development opportunity is fully funded and supported by NTU, so it is free for you to attend and is open to all NTU students.
After the workshop, you will receive a certificate of completion that can be applied to your Continuing Professional Development hours (CPD) and/or Employability Awards.
