CAT Graduates

CAT Graduate Community

Our graduates have used the skills and experience gained at CAT to make a real difference, helping to bring about the changes our society needs to create a more sustainable future.

Some graduates make a positive contribution from within large organisations, and some start their own businesses to bring about the change they want to see. The courses are known for giving graduates a sense that they can make a difference, no matter how big the challenge.

With over 2,000 graduates, the CAT Graduate School network continues to grow and graduates regularly return to teach at CAT to pass on their knowledge to current students. Regular interactions through CAT’s social networks also allows graduates and students to take advantage of networking and job opportunities.

“There is a fantastic network of alumni, and I have met friends I know I will stay in touch with for life, people I would not have met if I had not done the course.”
