Autumn Student Network Live

About this event

Student Network Live is our new interactive event series designed exclusively for CIPD students. Whether you're studying at Level 3, Level 5, Level 7, completing an apprenticeship, or learning through a university, college or study centre, this event is for you.

We know that most CIPD students aren't "traditional students". You're professionals, career changers, managers, parents, carers and future people professionals, often balancing study alongside busy lives and demanding careers. That's why we've created a space where students can come together to learn, connect, share experiences and discover how to make the most of their CIPD membership.
