As career professionals, we know that helping every student reach their potential means understanding the specific barriers standing in their way, whether that's navigating a new country, disclosing a disability, or simply not seeing themselves reflected in the opportunities in front of them.
Join Veejay Mistry, Careers Team Manager at the University of West London, as she shares three career programmes built around exactly that challenge. Designed to support international students, diverse talent, and students with disabilities, these programmes offer practical, replicable insights for any careers team looking to make inclusion more than just a talking point.
We'll explore:
🔹 Creating inclusive support that works for international students, diverse talent, and students with disabilities, and why flexible support matters
🔹 The three UWL career programmes that are actually working: what they look like, who they serve, and why they were built
🔹 Disability confidence in action, how to support students around reasonable adjustments, disclosure, and employment rights
🔹 How to champion inclusive careers provision within your institution and demonstrate its value to the wider business
Whether you're building something new or strengthening what you already have, this session offers honest, practical insight from someone doing the work every day.
