Time spent on extracurricular placements is eligible to contribute towards the Nottingham Advantage Award. This recognises your effort in taking part in these activities and gives you something to show future employers.
Volunteer at the Digital Transformations Hub
Faculty of Arts students can also volunteer at our on-campus Digital Transformations Hub.
After training in digital capture (still, video, audio) and post-capture editing skills, volunteers choose one of several digital-themed ‘real world’ projects to work on with internal and external partners.
In addition to project work, you will assist staff and students working in the Hub, as well as representing the Hub at events and activities throughout the faculty.
I have not only gained digital media skills learning how to use new software and produce content, but I have also improved upon my communication skills, time-management, and organisational skills, all of which are very valuable on a CV.
