Shell Step
An eight-week program designed to offer second year students relevant work experience over their summer vacation period, as well as being paid a weekly training allowance. Participants are placed with local companies who have a specific project that they need undertaking. At the end of the project the student submits a written report and gives a presentation outlining their experiences at a local competition day. If successful there is an opportunity for them to progress to the national competition ' Most Enterprising Student'. Shell Step is a great way to enhance a graduate’s CV and demonstrate relevant experience to prospective employers.
