PREP
Our immersive assessment centre experience.
PREP is our immersive assessment centre experience. It’s designed to replicate the graduate recruitment journey, providing developmental feedback that can help increase employability levels and integrate with the curriculum. The experience is available as a one-off, or at the start and end of an academic year to help measure progress.
Bespoke assessments can be created for your institution and shaped specifically to your particular curriculum model or graduate attributes. We can also aggregate our reporting to understand your common developmental areas and attitudes towards employability – so you see the bigger picture.

Safety Net
Our targeted graduate job support package for cohorts of under and unemployed graduates from your University, put into action between graduation and the Graduate Outcomes Survey (GOS) collection.
Safety Net sees us directly support a targeted cohort of your graduates – often from an under-represented background – into graduate-level employment.
The graduates are coached by our team of experienced recruiters and HR professionals. We shape a tailored support package, informed by their needs, to get them moving towards a graduate-level job.

GERM
The Gradcore Employability Risk Model (GERM).
GERM uses a unique algorithm, developed over the last 5 years, to index entire student cohorts with the aim of identifying and understanding which students are most at risk of under or unemployment. This predictive data model uses more than 50 internal and external data points to create an individual risk score for each student. This empowers universities to target support more effectively and efficiently.
