Work Experience
Streamed LIVE from a hospital in London
One-day virtual work experience for SCHOOL STUDENTS

Following the Covid-19 pandemic, the university requirements for work experience have changed drastically and will continue to change. Fewer hospitals accept students to undergo work experience, and Covid-19 regulations make finding work experience extremely challenging. This one-day virtual work experience event has been designed around the latest university requirements for work experience to give students access to real doctors inside real hospitals, from the comfort of their own home.
Nobody would want to go for a career in medicine without understanding the realities behind the profession and what it's like on a daily basis. Whether you are still trying to decide if medicine is the right career for you, or if you've already made up your mind and building your application and are looking for CV improvements - this event is for you!
