Virtual work experience
We've partnered with Springpod to offer online virtual work experience. The programme is designed for residents aged 14 and over. You can gain practical knowledge, skills, and insights to start your career. Programmes are available on demand, and open until February 2025. There are limited licenses so each course is first come, first served.
Brighton & Hove City Council's virtual work experience programme is now available to prospective students on the University College Admissions Service website.
Participants of both programmes are awarded a digital badge.
