The UK's ONLY "Study Abroad Event", 17/3/12

Saturday 17th March 2012, Emirates Stadium, London

With all the news about increasing student tuition fees and the lack of student places at universities in the UK The Student World have recently launched the Student World fairs – the UK’s only study abroad events.

After carrying out market research The Student World found that students in the UK weren’t aware of the huge number of opportunities available for studying abroad. Many students didn't realise that degrees are taught in English and can often be more cost effective than studying in the UK.

The Student World Fairs have been designed to answer all the questions a potential student/parent/career adviser may have regarding studying in another country. On the day of the event you can meet with over 50 universities from around the world, ask them questions about courses, fees, accommodation and living in another country.

The Student World will also be running a series of interactive seminars covering everything from making country specific applications, to funding and employability. Any student who meets with over 5 universities at the event will be entered into a prize draw to win either a £3,000 bursary or an iPad*

For FREE tickets please visit The Student World website, where you can either book individual tickets or you can register a group booking.

If you have any questions regarding our events please feel free to contact us.

The Student World Fair is not to be missed and they are looking forward to seeing you all there!

Best Wishes,

The Careersbox Team

P.S: The Student World are holding more events in September and October and we will keep you updated with the latest news and exhibitor info via email.

Opportunities for a successful career in business

Are you about to leave school or college? Are you interested in a successful career in business?
CIMA can offer you a qualification that is highly valued by employers worldwide and is a great opportunity to learn while you earn.  If you’re looking for an alternative to university that will allow you to immediately progress your career, earn a great salary and become professionally qualified in the process then CIMA could be for you.

What are you waiting for?
You don’t need to have a degree to start your CIMA studies. In fact, many graduates who have been to university find that a degree alone is not enough. Many decide to study the CIMA qualification after they have completed their degree to learn the practical skills they need to achieve their career goals.

So why wait? Start CIMA now and within three years you could be a Chartered Management Accountant, and all without a mountain of student debt to your name. All it requires is a competency in English and maths and a real desire to succeed in business.

The opportunities are endless
Wherever your passions lie, being a CIMA qualified management accountant is sure to open doors for you. Many of our members work in exciting industries including fashion, sport, travel, media or publishing.

CASE STUDY
Richard Kinney studied the CIMA qualification while working at Arcadia Group before becoming commercial planning manager for Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment:

‘CIMA prepares students to work in business and isn’t limited to pure accountancy. In my experience the high level decisions made within a company are often driven or supported by a management accountant. To be part of this process really appealed to me’.

On top of all this, CIMA members are generously rewarded for their efforts. As a newly qualified Chartered Management Accountant you can expect to earn around £41,000* a year.
