Employer Partnership Programme
We believe strong employer partnerships are essential to developing a skilled, future-ready workforce. Our Employer Partnership Programme is designed to create meaningful, mutually beneficial relationships with businesses across the city, region and beyond, ensuring our students gain the skills, experience, and confidence employers are looking for while helping businesses thrive in the local economy.
Our Key Objectives
By working closely with industry, we help bridge the gap between education and employment – supporting businesses to grow, innovate, and access emerging talent, while giving our students real insight into the world of work.
We work with employers to provide real-world insight, industry expertise and work experience opportunities that improve employability and prepare students for their next steps.
Employer partners play a vital role in shaping our curriculum, ensuring our courses reflect current industry standards, technologies, and future skills requirements.
Through strong employer connections, we help more students and apprentices progress into meaningful placements, apprenticeships, and employment with local businesses.
Our partnerships position Hull College as a hub for skills, innovation, and opportunity, supporting economic growth and showcasing the strength of collaboration between education and industry.
Become an Employer Partner
As an Employer Partner, you’ll have opportunities to engage in wide range of cross-college activities, including employer advisory panels, on-site visits, student projects, competitions, guest talks, contribute to curriculum development, and share valuable insight into your industry.
