Wrexham Glyndwr University has joined institutions across the globe in offering its students membership of the international Business Graduates’ Association network.

Wrexham Glyndwr University Dean of the Faculty of Social and Life Sciences, Dr Simon Stewart, said: “The BGA brings together world-leading businesses schools and we’re delighted that business students across our courses are able to enjoy the benefits of BGA Network membership – as part and parcel of their studies with us.

“As students at a Business School with BGA Membership, they get free access to the Association’s global network of students and graduates, helping them to develop contacts in their subjects and specialities around the world – and linking them to the global business community.

“They can also benefit from the work of the BGA Career Development Centre, and enjoy discount offers, events, and webinars alongside tools such as a CV builder.

“With a truly international outlook, our BGA Membership is yet another reason why there’s never been a better time to consider studying at Wrexham Glyndwr University”

Signing up is simple, easy, and free for all students on Wrexham Glyndwr University Business courses – with a dedicated webinar explaining the work of the BGA having already taken place for those currently studying with the University.

The schools industry-standard, career-focussed teaching remains at the heart of its work – with fresh links being regularly forged with businesses across the region and beyond.

Dr Stewart added: “While 2020 was not the year any of us may have envisaged, we’ve been proud to have helped businesses large and small – and businesspeople from all walks of life – over the past twelve months.

“Whether we have offered that helping hand through our research, through the staff development our courses can offer, through our industry partnerships, or through our ever-expanding network of alumni, we’ve been proud to support the North Wales business community during a tough time
