UNITE with Business – University of Cumbria
The Unite with Business project offers small to medium sized
businesses (SME’s) a business support programme, to increase
business innovation, performance and productivity.
Business support is provided via graduates and final year
university undergraduate students. These individuals work within
the businesses for a period of 20 days, with the nature of the work
being to address a skills or resource shortage within the company.
Examples of work include designing or re-designing a website,
developing a communications or marketing strategy or even
prototyping a new product.
The graduate or student will be sourced with business needs as a
priority, thus possessing the skills required to undertake the
task. All graduates, final year undergraduates, regardless of
university of origin, are considered eligible for
consideration.
UNITE with business could provide up to four weeks help
at NO COST to you.
Working with your business we can
- Help source a suitable recent graduate or student for your
needs
- Support you to ensure that the student achieves the best for
your business
- Administer and pay them for up to four weeks to undertake work
on your project.
