Universities are not just places where young UK adults complete a degree course . The reality is a long way from this.

Universities offer many support services to all types of organisations locally, nationally and internationally via dedicated business-facing staff and academics . The student population is vastly diverse in it's composition with students of all ages and races from all over the world.

The aims of this website are twofold:

1. To encourage employers on Merseyside to engage with universities by:
   • contributing ideas into and becoming involved with Higher Education
   • taking advantage of the excellent business support services as well as the more traditional student placement options
2. By demonstrating what it is like to live and work on Merseyside to encourage graduates to remain or come to the area.

Encouraging students to stay within the Merseyside area after graduation is important to try and retain the skills and attributes that these newly qualified graduates can bring. So from a Merseyside funeral home to component manufacturer, we urge Merseyside businesses to get involved with higher education to reap the benefits of graduate retention and take advantage of our business support services.

Business interaction between Universities and other educational authorities can be beneficial for both parties. If a funeral directors Merseyside made a placement available for a postgraduate through the summer, the business would essentially receive an outside view and receiving external skills which they previously didn’t have access to.

Graduates are finding it increasing hard to find jobs once they have left University. We recommend undertaking activities which set you apart from your competition such as a summer work placement at a Warrington funeral home . These activities will show potential employers that you are a motivated individual and will help you stand out from other potential employees.

Offering work placements to University students is one way in which students can get a taste of what working life will be like. Whether it be at a funeral director in Merseyside or electrical component production factory, students are sure to obtain a wealth of knowledge and will prepare them for work upon completion of their degree.

English language training is a necessity for most business people. Whatever your mix of general English Business English needs are we would recommend the type of course offered by MovingOn Courses. Their cursos de ingles en España is the offering of a small English language academy called MovingOn Courses - for obvious reasons. This school specialises in summer English courses in Ireland but also offer quality English language training all year in Spain.

Following university, many graduates find it difficult to find employment. Work experience and placements are a good way into a company. A key holding company may provide internships or placements along with other companies. When you get to know the people within a company and prove yourself, you are likely to be considered for a permanent position.
