Current issues What we’ve been doing Future Projects How to get involved

Current issues across the HE sector Visa changes continuing to be a problem for employment in the UK after graduation. Students returning home and equity of careers service provision - can we really be effective careers advisers to the world? How does this relate to resources? International placements/internships - resource implications of making this happen Students seem to be focusing more on work experience in the UK rather than graduate jobs Lack of effective LMI for international markets

What international students want? Data from University of Liverpool Careers & Employability Service survey, 2014

Reality 34,895 PSW work visas approved from student transfers in 2012 Post PSW 5,596 accepted for Tier 2 (General) in students were granted leave under Tier 5 (Government Authorised Exchange), for professional training and internships in Statistics from Home Office and UKCISA
