Career Vision Plus connects you to the Career Vision Club, a community designed to give you early access to events, opportunities, and the careers insights that help you move forward with confidence.
Ìý
Career Vision Plus is careers-focused and barrier breaking. We know that talent is everywhere but opportunities aren’t always equally accessible. That’s why CVP exists: to level the playing field, open doors, and make sure you have the tools, networks, and knowledge to thrive in the graduate job market.
Ìý
We celebrate the strengths, perspectives and lived experiences that students from all backgrounds bring. CVP looks directly at the inequalities that can shape career journeys and works with you to overcome them.
Ìý
The programme is shaped by students, for students, through the Widening Participation and Social Mobility Student Advisory Board. Your voice drives the direction. Your experience shapes the action.
Ìý
Career Vision Plus is about amplifying your potential, building your confidence, and giving you the career momentum you deserve.

"When it comes to CVP, it really motivated me seeing people coming from not so common backgrounds like myself. Besides that, I got a lot of information regarding the tools, services and opportunities available at our university’s career department which has helped me out."
