'I want to note that the most valuable part of the award was being able to reflect on these experiences; reliving those moments step by step, and no matter what level of the award you achieve, every hobby, society, and work experience is beneficial to your time as a student.'

Inés Robledo

I’m an English and French fourth-year student. I’m an international student and I’ve just come back from my year abroad, so as a final-year I’m just trying to make the most out of my time left at Warwick, developing my skills as much as possible before the next steps in my professional career.

'From my status as an international student to my part-time work at Warwick, there are quite a few things that have contributed towards my Award that I didn’t know would gain me points when I signed up. It helped me to develop skills such as intercultural and self-awareness, digital literacy and critical thinking.'

'You probably hear this too much when you’re looking for advice on how to improve your CV. The main advice I always get is to always tailor your CV to the job application. The Warwick award is really flexible in terms of tailoring those bullet points in your CV to fit any kind of job application.'

Priya Ganatra

Hi, I’m a third-year Modern Languages student! Welcome to a qualification that's flexible, free, full of new opportunities, and a fantastic way to make you stand out to employers. I completed the Warwick Award, and here’s why you should too!

'Don't be intimidated thinking you have to sign up for millions of new activities to complete the Award. I've gained so many skills from part-time jobs, volunteering, societies, and academic work -things that I’d already been doing prior to registering for the Award - e.g. Communication and Intercultural Awareness from mentoring and blogging, Information Literacy from creating a translation theory portfolio and Teamwork from taking part in a music society. Most importantly, the Award also encourages you to try new skills!'
