Study Group partners with a range of global universities — Lancaster University (England), Teesside University (England), University of Aberdeen (Scotland) and DePaul University (Chicago) — to provide students with valuable skills to increase their ability to develop work experience whilst they study, and help them secure future employment

KATHMANDU: Study Group, a leading global international education provider, has extended its 'Job Ready Programme' for Nepali students studying in various universities in the US and the UK. Study Group’s Job Ready programme has been designed specifically to support Nepali students to develop key transferable skills to increase their chances of securing a job, enabling them to earn whilst they learn and to access global employment opportunities once they graduate. Study Group covers the cost of the service for all students who confirm their place at a UK International Study Centre or US International College. Study Group students receive educational materials and support for CV writing and profile presentation, that are expected to avail benefits from interview coaching and mock interviews. Upon completion of the programme, students become eligible to receive dedicated assistance in securing up to three interview opportunities with potential employers. Interviews will be conducted for companies located close to the students’ chosen International Study Centre or International College, according to Study Group. Srini Bandara, Regional Director for South Asia at Study Group says, “The Job Ready Programme is a fantastic initiative from Study Group, designed to ensure that Nepalese students are ‘work-ready’ once they complete their higher education course. Nepalese students have the chance to build knowledge and expertise in their chosen field of study, alongside developing professional core competencies and relevant work experience as soon as they come to the UK, enhancing their future employment prospects. As a result, they will also be in a strong position to fill skills gaps in the Nepalese workforce.” Study Group’s employability offerings include ‘Prepare for Success,’ ‘Job Ready’ and ‘Virtual Internships.’ These innovative strategic initiatives have been established to enable learners to seamlessly progress to UK or US universities and gain the key employability skills needed to thrive in a 21st Century workplace: Prepare for Success: An online programme that supports students to acquire the language, life and learning skills to transition from home to overseas study effectively. As a direct result of the programme, 82% of learners enrolled in the course felt sufficiently prepared to start their academic studies. Job Ready: Nepali students can earn while they learn, develop key transferable skills and gain valuable work experience while they study in the UK, with Study Group’s free employability service. Virtual internships: Study Group has partnered with Virtual Internships Partners Ltd to offer Nepali students’ online internships and international work placements across 70+ countries and over 40+ industries. Virtual Internships works alongside over 4,000 companies worldwide to enable thousands of students to develop their skills via remote internships professionally.
