STUDENT OUTREACH
Research shows that the gap between attainment and success is closely tied to the availability and accessibility of opportunities. Data reveals that even when students of African and Caribbean descent outperform their peers, they are still less likely to access appropriate jobs and careers due to their ethnicity.
We collaborate with companies looking to strengthen and implement their racial inclusion initiatives in practical ways. Whether through co-designed and facilitated events, consultation and guidance around potential barriers to entry, or by marketing and outreach support alone, we improve the ability of companies to connect with a highly capable but underrepresented pool of academically talented young people, helping you to diversify your student and early years outreach activities, and workforce thereafter.
“It has been fantastic to work with ACEN to promote the National Graduate Development Programme (NGDP). Our aim was to encourage more applications from Black students to the NGDP. ACEN helped us to achieve this through using their networks, mailing lists and a social media campaign to raise awareness of the programme. Aisha was easy to work with and was in regular contact to update us on the progress of the campaign up until the closing date”
