At Elevation Networks, we strongly believe in the power of positive role models. By this, we mean individuals who young people can relate to, who share their background, and who have or are making strides to ensure a good life for themselves.
Today, there are too many sources of negative imagery that young people are subjected to and too often replicate. We believe that by showing a different reality - one where hard work pays off - a ripple effect can occur within today's society.
We recognise that it‘s simply not enough for young people to get into higher education. They also need a strong support network, too. This is why we at Elevation Networks are intent on building a network to educate and support young people.
Why Students Should Join Us
Networking enhances a student's future career prospective as well as allowing individuals to gain an in- depth insight into specific careers.
Having the ability to network with employees at the forefront of certain industries provides you with a unique ability to gain a more tangible, face to face experience of what a job role entails and also allows you to gain personal insight from current employee's experiences; rather than reading the generic information documented online.
Some additional reasons why students should get involved with Elevation Networks are as follows:
- It's free to become a member and to attend Elevation events
- As attendance to all EN events is invitation only, our members are given first priority
- Students gain a competitive edge, by gaining access to information otherwise difficult to obtain
- By becoming a member, students are updated with information on all events and placement and career opportunities
- Members who attend our events are able to interact with professionals and gain an in-depth understanding of requirements needed for the application process as opposed to a 3-5 minute talk at a careers/recruitment fair
- Students are able to meet like-minded people who share their passion in both our social and corporate networking events
- Only registered members have full access to information on Elevation Network events and initiatives
- Members also have the opportunity to join our UK- wide University Student Action Team where you can benefit from exclusive merchandise, training and events
Why Organisations Should Join Us
We are a dedicated team that diligently commits to excellence in providing both corporate and social networking events for our clients, whilst also implementing campaigns to combat problems faced by young people aged between 18-24 years.
Some of the reason why Organisations should partner with us are as follows:
- Organizations gain access to a diverse selection of students, helping to ensure future talent is not lost
- Elevation Networks networking events provides a gateway for you to recruit the right students for your organization
- Student led brand awareness within Universities through our innovative student outreach methods
- Activities such as helping undergraduates become more employable are ideal opportunities to generate positive press coverage whilst also helping organisations to build an inclusive more diverse workforce
We also offer an excellent way for you to boost your corporate responsibility activities. Many organisations are now offering us sponsorship and providing our members with mentoring and guidance – a clear signal that their organisations are actively supporting diversity in the workplace.
