Find out more about how we can support you once you graduate, and how you can keep involved with us in the future.

Career continuation service

Our career continuation service is unique. Most institutions offer career support for just 3-6 months after you graduate, whereas ours is unlimited for life. Those that sign up to the continuation service will benefit from a whole host of resources, with the aim of developing your post-Cranfield career:

  • Coaching – Skype, phone and email support for career direction and transition management
  • Symplicity – ongoing access to this portal; apply to alumni opportunities and events
  • Subscription resources – continued access to a selection of useful research sites
  • Signposting – advertisement of relevant alumni opportunities and initiatives through our channels
  • Entrepreneurs – advice for those looking to start their own business
  • Rankings and Graduate Outcomes – managing surveys which help to rank your qualification

Amit“I got a lot of support from the Alumni network when I was at Cranfield, so the least I can do is support my fellow Cranfieldians by coaching them on their careers.”

Feedback surveys

We manage and report on alumni outcomes, to help rank your qualification and get feedback on your student experience. The two most important surveys we run are Graduate Outcomes and the SoM Employability surveys. We will notify you in advance, so you don’t miss out on having your say.
