Alumni
Alumni programme
We have kicked off the programme for our alumni – both grads and mentors who have completed The Challenge.
Completing a summer with The Challenge is just the beginning. Grads can return the next summer as Associate Mentors, sharing their experience with new teams in the Real Challenge (the final week of the full-time programme plus ongoing project work in September). Having done that, they can come back in future summers in positions of increasing responsibility.
We also provide opportunities for cohorts to get back together and for individuals to pursue further opportunities:
- Workshops in CV writing, interviewing, money management
- Participation or leadership in the programmes of partner charities
- Introduction to apprenticeship and development programmes
- Shadowing business or community leaders.
We’ll be working with our grads and mentors to identify even more ways that they can stay in touch, stay engaged and keep growing!
