For students
We’ve made resources accessible and bite-sized for students. We utilise our experience in working with industry, training providers and accreditation bodies to produce resources that match the need of an ever-changing digital environment.
Students enjoy access to their student hub, hosting resources such as industry insights, employer interviews and webinars, giving them a portal to a wealth of knowledge from the digital industry, which they can access in their own time.
We know how important it is for students to hear from those who work in the industry that they are looking to be part of. We provide touch points with key players in the digital industry on a variety of topics, giving the insights to the sector that help give depth and breadth to young people’s understanding of the opportunities that are open to them.
Students also get the chance to enter competitions, set and judged by employers giving them an opportunity to put their skills in to practice with a real-life project.
On completing their Digital T Level, students become part-RITTech recognised, and are listed on the public register, meaning they can show to potential employers that they are one step ahead in their journey to full professional registration.
Students get four years free BCS membership - with access to a wide range of member benefits, as well as networking, mentoring and career development opportunities.
“We use the competition to develop students' team working skills in preparation for industry placement, and it’s great for my students to work with industry on a project and the chance of winning a prize and improving their CV at the same time"
