Overview
Details

Looking to elevate your organization, and bring it to the next level? Bring on learners from Nelson College London to be your learner-consultants, in a project-based experience. Learners will work on one main project over the experience of the semester, connecting with you as needed with virtual communication tools.


Learners have already studied modules on the topics of Introduction to the Business Environment, Introduction to Marketing, Managing Financial Resources, Managing People in an Organisation, Employability Skills and Professional Development, Entrepreneurship in Business and Business Decision Making.


As part of the foundation degree course, the placement is 96 hours over the course of a semester. These hours can be completed anywhere in a 3 to 12 week time frame, depending on what is mutually beneficial to the employer, student and the project.

Employability development, Online communication, Marketing, People management, Decision making, Research
Deliverables

Deliverables are negotiable, and will seek to align the needs of the learners and the organization. 


Some final project deliverables might include: 

  1. A 10-15 minute presentation on key findings and recommendations
  2. A detailed report including their research, analysis, insights and recommendations
  3. A shortlists of candidates for open positions

  • Recruitment
  • Marketing/advertising
  • Sales
  • Business administration
  • Grant research
