Welcome and congratulations Today we are celebrating students who have achieved the Nottingham Advantage Award. We will also be awarding a series of employer-supported prizes to students who have demonstrated outstanding achievements. The Award recognises your efforts in developing and reflecting upon your employability skills, helping to prepare you for your graduate career and beyond. We hope you enjoy this afternoon as a chance to celebrate your achievements as well as having the opportunity to network with employers and staff. Well done to you all! The Nottingham Advantage Award team

Message from the Vice-Chancellor I would like to warmly congratulate all of our students who have completed the Nottingham Advantage Award this year. Congratulations also to those who have had their exceptional achievements recognised through the employer-supported prizes. The Award is what a Nottingham education is all about. It pushes our students thinking further, develops them as individuals and helps prepare them for a successful career when they leave us. Early engagement with external organisations is something we have always encouraged here at Nottingham and the Award is an innovative way of inspiring students to do this. With that in mind, I would also like to thank the organisations and their staff who have led modules and supported prizes this year for their vital contributions to this award-winning and ever-expanding initiative. Now a distinct element of the Nottingham experience and with a variety of modules convened across our international campuses, the Award continues to be key to how we support our students in developing their global, social and cultural capital.

Looking back on the Award Grace Steggall, BA Hons Geography (2017) Last year’s winner of the Teach First Outstanding Contribution to the Community Prize

Working towards the Nottingham Advantage Award and receiving the Teach First prize were highlights of my time at Nottingham. I gave my all to completing the Award modules to ensure I got the most out of the opportunity. Applying for the ‘Outstanding Contribution to the Community Prize’ was a natural progression. I wanted to share my experiences with the Award team and 6

encourage others to get recognition for their hard work at Nottingham. Since receiving the prize, I landed a place on the Teach First graduate scheme. I had already spent three years working in schools in Nottingham to help raise aspirations, so it was the next logical step in my career. Without the Award and the modules I undertook, I would not be on this scheme now. I am currently based in the North East working in an academy, teaching students from similar backgrounds to those I taught as part of the Award. Winning the prize

gave me the confidence to showcase my achievements and demonstrate my passion for helping the community. It was a pleasure to talk about it at interview for this job. The Award contributed to monumental changes in my life and career path. It encouraged me to use my experiences to make the positive changes I want to see in the world. I cannot thank the Nottingham Advantage Award team enough!


Module of the Year

English Language Support for Refugees We are delighted to announce that the English Language Support for Refugees module has been awarded the title of Nottingham Advantage Award Module of the Year. The module allows students to put into practice their English Language teaching skills. Students work in the Nottingham area to provide language support to refugees who need general and functional English language skills to survive and adapt to life in the UK.

What our students thought “It has definitely improved my adaptability and flexibility in the classroom. It has helped my lesson planning abilities, the way I explain vocabulary and grammar, and has changed - for the better - the way that I teach. It has been fantastic to see the refugees improve so quickly and has been a really rewarding experience.” “The module has helped me gain many valuable skills that I can apply outside of university and has also made an immediate, positive impact on the refugees who took part.”

Message from the Convenor – Cora Lindsay I felt this module would address two needs. Firstly, it would fill a significant gap in the English language provision for the refugee and asylum-seeking community in the Nottingham area. Secondly, it would offer our trainee and other aspiring teachers the opportunity to acquire teaching experience in a multi-cultural environment.

Over the two years I have been running the module, students have put energy, enthusiasm and commitment into their teaching. It has been hugely rewarding to work with them and the refugee learners. I am genuinely thrilled that the hard work we have all put into this module has been recognised with this Award. I would also say that it has been a pleasure to work with the Nottignham Advantage Award team who make the administration and set up of these modules so straightforward.

“This module made me increasingly certain that I want to join the education sector. I cannot imagine myself doing anything other than teaching now. I am incredibly happy that Cora has launched such a fantastic module in which I can practise my teaching skills. I would highly recommend it to other students.”

My journey on the Nottingham Advantage Award

Jessica Fath BSc Hons Psychology, final year

In my first year, I took the module Engaging the Public with Psychology. I learned to simplify the concepts of my course and present them to a group of non-scientists. My audiences ranged from primary school children in the classroom to the elderly at science fairs. Striving to gain more experience, I became a peer mentor, accompanying six students through their first year. We had regular meetings about essay and report writing. I built a professional, but trusted relationship, with my mentees. I received overwhelmingly positive feedback. This experience enhanced my communication skills and raised my awareness of the 8

importance of accepting people’s individual differences. In my second year, I completed the Leadership in Sports module. I gained practical experience in leading a large group of people with a variety of interests and backgrounds. Through this I enrolled on a coaching course to enhance my leadership skills, which led me to set up personalised coaching sessions for goalkeepers. Once I had completed the Award, I continued to participate in extracurricular activities to further improve my employability. I became a course representative and was head of events for one of the Enactus enterprises, which gave me an insight into business relations. Following these extracurricular activities, I took the brave step of applying for the employer-supported Nottingham Advantage Award prizes. Consequently,

I was invited to interview for the EY sponsored “Enterprise in the Community” prize. The interview allowed me to reflect on my work and what I had learned from it. This confirmed my aspirations of pursuing a career in mental health, supporting the local community. I was over the moon when I found out I had won and am so grateful to receive this official recognition that my endeavors have had a meaningful impact. The Nottingham Advantage Award has given me valuable knowledge and experiences to discuss at interviews. The peer mentoring module emphasised the importance of supporting others and increased my desire to choose a career in this area. Ultimately, I want to become an animal-assisted therapist. There is a long road with challenges in front of me, but the Award has given me confidence in my abilities, and the experience to achieve my goals.

The Award stood out for me because of its numerous opportunities to gain insights into a variety of areas. I tried to choose modules that allowed me to investigate different settings and enhance a wide range of skills, such as public speaking, self-awareness and leadership.

Winner: Hannah Louise Aldridge BA Hons Sociology, second year Ever since starting university, I have loved working with young people and helping them to grow both academically and personally. My Nottingham Advantage Award modules have enabled me to discover that I really want to work in widening participation. I applied for this prize in order to showcase the skills that I have gained from my experiences, to prove to others how important ending educational inequality is to me, and how I will continue to work towards this in my future.

Highly commended: Callum Evans MEng Hons Electronic and Computer Engineering with a year in industry, third year I have thoroughly enjoyed getting involved in the local community while being at Nottingham. I am particularly passionate about STEMM subjects so my selected Nottingham Advantage Award modules have allowed me to pursue this interest by helping to develop the next generation of STEMM students. The volunteering I have been involved with has been extremely selfrewarding, while also helping me to develop on both a personal and professional level.


Personal Development Prize Supported by Experian This prize, supported by Experian, recognises an individual student for their commitment to personal development.

Winner: Sophie Timmins BA Hons Philosophy, third year

Highly commended: Sagar Vasandani MSci Hons Biology, third year

Through my Nottingham Advantage Award modules I have developed a confidence, which has radiated in all areas of my life; from my academic studies, participation in societies, volunteering, travelling alone and even applying for this prize. I feel that my determination to do my best in all of my Award modules has resulted in great rewards. I really believe that I have become very independent, and developed a strong drive to succeed.

My Nottingham Advantage Award modules have allowed me to take ownership of my personal development by auditing my skill set at the start of the module. I created targets for personal growth, reflecting throughout the module on my progress and identifying challenges.

Why do Experian sponsor this prize? At Experian, we believe that individuals have greater success if they take ownership for their own development and use a variety of resources to help them reach their goals. We support all colleagues to develop both personally and professionally. Motivated individuals, who are keen to deliver inspirational service, are essential if we are able to achieve our vision. Personal development means adding, enhancing or refreshing your knowledge, skills and/or behaviours in order to be the best you can be.

What is the prize?

Winner: A three-hour one-toone business coaching session, which will enable you to focus on your personal goals, and a full day shadowing one of Experian’s business leaders

Enterprise in the Community Prize Supported by EY

This prize, supported by EY, recognises an individual student for their enterprising activity.

Winner: Jessica Sophia Fath BSc Hons Psychology, third year In the Public Engagement module, I got in touch with a wide range of people from the local community. This module taught me about factors to consider when simplifying complicated content. Having to present given content to a range of different audiences, I had to adapt my approach and presentations specific to the knowledge and age of those audiences.

Why do EY sponsor this prize? EY are proud supporters of the Enterprise in the Community Prize because entrepreneurs make a difference. They not only have great ideas, but also the drive to make them a reality. They use their fresh thinking and hard work to create positive social change - bringing new concepts and products to market, and creating jobs and wealth. We have long recognised the potential of entrepreneurs. We work with a range of businesses, from those receiving their first venture funding through to large mid-up companies, whose value may be measured in billions of dollars. We have decided to sponsor this prize to recognise the work that Nottingham students do in the local community. Whether it is contributing to a social enterprise or volunteering for a community organisation, entrepreneurship is more than just making money to EY. It is about demonstrating the desire to get out in front and lead whilst making a difference along the way.

What is the prize?

Winner: ÂŁ200 to support career development Highly commended: Attendance at an insight day

Highly commended: Jodie McDonald BA Hons English Language and Literature, third year Engaging with the Literary Support Project allowed for contributions to be made towards the enhancement of the local community. Having come from a similar environment, supporting children’s education from disadvantaged backgrounds resonated with myself on a personal level. Due to the British Sign Language module I gained specialist linguistic skills to share with other students through the Sign Language Society. The skills gained through the Award are not only for the future, but they are already having a profound impact upon the University.


Outstanding Female Entrepreneur of the Year Prize Supported by Enterprise-Rent-A-Car This prize, supported by Enterprise Rent-A-Car, recognises the outstanding achievement of a female student for their entrepreneurial approaches to activities undertaken throughout the Award.

Winner: Ashna Thillainathan BA Hons Management with Spanish, fourth year

Highly commended: Oliwia Kielbowska BA Hons Management with Chinese Studies, first year

The Professional Development module, provided me with a strong grounding to help prepare for job assessments, become more self-aware and make the most of university by broadening my skill set beyond my academic degree. I realised that I had without doubt honed my interpersonal skills in a formal setting and now feel confident talking to a wide range of people. Not only did this come from the workplace, but also throughout my time abroad as I had encounters with and made friends with people from all over the world with varying perspectives and cultural backgrounds.

Being a female entrepreneur that set up her own business in China cannot seem more appealing for me. The Award modules I chose were connected with creating a positive impact for the world and breaking down barriers. I am utterly convinced that both modules broadened my horizons and widened my knowledge, providing me with the opportunity to make steps towards my future. The most important thing is a willingness to take action and to find opportunities such as those my chosen modules gave me.

Why do Enterprise sponsor this prize? Enterprise has invested heavily in supporting female employees to move into management roles within their company. They have done this as part of their aim to promote a diverse workforce and Enterprise has been recognised in the The Times Top 50 Employers for Women for the 13th year in a row.

What is the prize?

Winner: ÂŁ150 Capital Bonds vouchers Highly commended: ÂŁ50 Capital Bonds vouchers

Leadership Prize Supported by Mars

This prize, supported by Mars, recognises an individual student who has demonstrated leadership skills.

Winner: Holly Dumsday Highly commended: BSc Hons Geography, Nick Chung Kah Kin second year MEng Hons Electrical To me, leadership is all about keeping your Engineering and team motivated as this keeps them working Renewable Energy effectively and creates a positive working environment. I have learned about the Systems, third year different forms of leadership throughout my Nottingham Advantage Award modules, from leading people my own age in sporting activities to volunteering at local primary schools, and leading sporting sessions with younger children. These modules helped me develop organisational and communication skills which are both key to being a successful leader.

Why do Mars sponsor this prize? At Mars, leadership underpins the way we work in a way that aligns with our ‘Five Principles’. This is developed over the course of a period of time through personal development, coaching and the experience to stretch oneself professionally. Leadership is not something that you only practice in the workplace and we are very passionate about supporting, where we can, prizes such as this.

What is the prize?

Winner: Attendance at an insight day at a national Mars office either near Nottingham or near London

I think when most people think of leadership, it is just about leading other people. However, I think leadership is definitely more than that. Over the past three years at Nottingham and through all of the activities that I have engaged in, the essence of leading is not about showing any superiority towards others, but rather, guiding people to willingly contribute solutions to a problem. My experiences have given me an idea for my future career path and lifetime dream by allowing me to lead myself with discipline and effectively make use of my time and resources.


Professional Development Prize Supported by Boots This prize, supported by Boots, recognises students’ passion, innovation and dedication to their professional development.

Winner: Louisa MacDonald LLB Hons Law, third year I was initially attracted to this prize when I researched Boots as a company, and the attributes they look for in employees. I feel the modules I have completed for my Award demonstrate these values. For example, picking a module that paired with my part-time job showed care and compassion in my role and what I was doing, aiming to improve my skills and perform as successfully as I could.

Highly commended: Pawel Przemyslaw Rogowski BSc Hons Finance, Accounting and Management, first year The modules I undertook allowed me to increase my cultural awareness, improve teamwork skills and build selfconfidence. Each of these factors is vital for professional development, which I find highly valuable. Moreover, as I am a first-year student, the Award enabled me to quickly settle into university life and meet many inspiring people.

Why do Boots sponsor this prize? At Boots, people are at the heart of everything we do. It’s really important to us as a business to support future talent and this Award underpins our approach. This prize will help you gain a wider understanding of how our business operates as well as giving us the opportunity to show how you can contribute effectively within an organisation.

What is the prize?

Winner: A week-long tailored insights programme at the Nottingham Support Office

Outstanding Community Engagement Prize Supported by Save the Children This prize, supported by Save the Children, recognises a student’s commitment to making their local area a hotspot of vibrant community activity.

Why do Save the Children sponsor this prize? Save the Children has launched its biggest campaign ever to save children’s lives. No child is born to die, but 6.3 million children under five die every year from preventable illnesses, such as diarrhoea and pneumonia. In the 21st century, this is utterly wrong. Infant mortality has nearly halved in the last twenty years and it is dropping steadily. We can be the generation that ends unnecessary infant deaths, but only if we become a ‘Cause of Millions’. Our volunteers are a crucial part of making this happen. Save the Children has decided to sponsor this prize because it is a great opportunity for students to be recognised for having made their local area a hotspot of vibrant community activity. We want to find students who contribute to achieving our ambitions for children and have used their skills to make a great effect, either locally or as a part of a national team with a broad impact.

What is the prize?

Winner: A day at Save the Children HQ in London

16

Winner: Alisa De Herder BA Hons International Relations, third year I took part in the Save the Children module because I was aware of the charity already and wanted to learn more about it. The Save the Children module has taught me about a huge sector of developmental education that I otherwise wouldn’t have known about. I feel as though it was the single factor that really let me discover what I wanted to do in life. My experience through the Nottingham Advantage Award has convinced me to follow a career in developmental education for which I’m currently researching masters programmes.


Highly commended: Shanai Momi BA Hons English, second year

Highly commended: Jarnai Lewin BA Hons Economics, third year

I learned a great deal from all the modules studied; leadership, communication, team-work, diplomacy, and more. The experiences and skills I gained led to me securing two jobs as well as a placement in which I work alongside disadvantaged children and adults, making me realise that my ambition in life is to motivate and inspire others to better their future.

Through completing the award, I have learned the importance of reflection. Without the Nottingham Advantage Award, I would’ve fulfilled my role as peer mentor and committee member of Immigration Education Nottingham, without taking the time to evaluate my contributions and discover more about myself as a worker. Moving forward, the Award has enabled me to improve my employability by allowing me to reflect on, and then strengthen, my positive attributes. I’ve learned to become more ambitious and to work harder in order to reach my goals.

Vice-Chancellor’s Global Graduate Prize Supported by the Vice Chancellor This prize, supported by the Vice-Chancellor, recognises an individual student for their global graduate attributes.

Winner: Falonnie Chin Pei Lin BSc Finance, Accounting and Management, third year I am beyond grateful for the significant opportunities offered by the University which have allowed me to discover my potential on various international platforms. This journey has challenged me in growing holistically, while constantly contributing to the local and global community. The Vice-Chancellor’s Global Graduate Prize serves as a strong motivation for students who aspire to equip themselves with positive attributes to be global leaders of tomorrow.

Why does the Vice-Chancellor sponsor this prize? By the time you graduate, we hope that our academic and extracurricular opportunities will have allowed you to grow professionally, to develop as a person and to formulate exciting plans for the future. Everyone’s journey is different and we’re proud of how our students mature and broaden their horizons. You will leave us not just with an internationally-recognised degree but with a critical way of thinking and the ability to work independently. Although you might not have all the answers, you’ll have the skills and aptitude to tackle any questions qualities that will help you succeed in whatever you choose to do.

What is the prize? Winner: £300 to be used towards travel

18


Highly commended: Adam Al-Azzawi BSc Environmental Sciences, fourth year The modules focus on transferable skills, which are not found in books or other means, rather they are available through personal practices which these modules offer. The I-Week module for instance, allows for leadership, communication, teamwork, problem solving, time management and more skills, to grow. Nottingham Advantage Award modules are the core of personal development in my opinion, and I hope that more students are exposed to them in the future.
