The Adelaide Graduate Award is a free employability program open to students from all faculties. As you progress through the Award, you will enhance your skills through paid work, volunteering, attending
Career Services workshops and completing a written reflection.

There are numerous activities to choose from, so you can select the ones that interest you most or align with your current extracurricular commitments.
