Volunteering and the UCL Graduate School's Skills Development Programme

The Graduate School's Skills Development Programme is open to all graduate research students at UCL. The purpose of the programme is to give you the opportunity to expand your generic research skills and personal transferable skills. These skills are intended to help your research at UCL and also to enhance your life skills and employability.

Research students at UCL are expected to take full advantage of the training on offer and should be aiming to participate in the Graduate School Skills Development Programme and/or appropriate other activities to a degree equivalent to two weeks per year

Volunteering counts as a development activity and you can earn points for it, and for participating in the VSU's training programme.
