Introduction

Change Agents UK have always been ahead of the curve. We identified the need to empower graduates with the skills needed for ‘Change Agency’ as a way of improving their employability, and nearly 20 years ago, established the charity to support this aim and have been creating change agents ever since.

Our work over the years with both employers and recent graduates has only strengthened their view that it is the skills and experience that a graduate can demonstrate as supporting their formal studies that determine employability. Change Agents UK are now sharing the learning from their experiences to reveal exactly what these ‘Skills of a Change Agent’ include in practice.

So, what are we offering? The Package

We know that institutions are looking to ensure that the internal opportunities offered to their students are
inspiring, coherent and most importantly fit for purpose.

Our approach builds on the great work that is already happening in institutions and helps to take activity and engagement to the next level. This might be by:

• extending or deepening the reach of existing activity
• refreshing the existing activities
• determining the impact of current activity so it is valued by the institution and the students
• creating or strengthening links across the institution so that there is a coherent message and approach for skills development


We understand that institutional context varies and so have developed an approach that can be completely tailored to institutional need.

About the people behind the package:

Change Agents UK and ESD Solutions have created this exciting package by working in partnership to share and distil their skills, knowledge and experiences of working within institutions and with recent graduates. This means that you can expect professional, innovative delivery from people who really understand your context.
