Graduate Ambassador Scheme – Targeted Outreach Project Sample Clauses

Graduate Ambassador Scheme – Targeted Outreach Project.  Four of the University’s new graduates are employed each year, on a one-year full-time contract, to work as Graduate Ambassadors in collaboration with our student recruitment and widening participation teams. The Graduate Ambassadors help to extend the geographical ‘reach’ of our Widening Participation activities through visits to schools and colleges to deliver presentations and interactive workshops for pupils. Topics include: the benefits of investing in their future through participation in Higher Education; student finance issues, including the bursary scheme; student life (to dispel myths and misconceptions); and the ‘Newcastle experience’ about which, as very recent undergraduate students, they will be able to give credible and contemporary information. 2010-11 will be the sixth successive year of the Graduate Ambassador Scheme.  The Graduate Ambassadors are fully trained, and undertake many other relevant roles, including work with local schools and colleges, involvement in the PARTNERS Programme and Summer Schools, contributing to relevant University recruitment publicity materials, and the development of projects, resources and materials to support our widening participation work. They also contribute to post- application events, offering accommodation tours and talks on student finance to applicants and their parents. In doing so, they gain valuable employability skills preparing them for their own future careers.  Since October 2005, the University’s widening participation and student recruitment teams have also worked closely with our School of Education and Communication Studies to ensure that each year’s cohort of PGCE students is fully trained and equipped to promote the benefits of Higher Education, and the range of subjects available, during their periods of teaching practice.  The Graduate Ambassadors Targeted Outreach Project is supplemented by a new (University core- funded) Student Ambassador scheme. Approximately 130 current undergraduate students are employed on a part-time contract each year. They support the wide range of widening participation and student recruitment events on campus and also attend schools and colleges to talk about higher education choices, student finance and the student experience. Some of the Ambassadors have a particular focus on support for STEM-based outreach. They also provide support for our Summer School and Master Class activities.
