UK Postgraduate Education Seminar ( + Shortage Occupation Overview)

Type: In-Person Seminar
Target: University Graduates and Working Adults
Location: British United / Join from Home

A few years into working adult’s life, as graduates start to understand themselves and the society in general better, personal ambition and career goals tend to shift and it’s a common point in life where working adults consider a postgraduate education.

Graduates intending to stay within their industries normally go for a Taught Postgraduate programme, where they’d deepen their professional knowledge and obtain a higher academic qualification. As a UK postgraduate degree normally takes just a year to complete, it’s always been a very popular option – especially when it comes with worldwide recognition!

Looking for a career change? Postgraduate (Conversion) may help open door to a range of professional careers! These programmes allow students to obtain professional qualifications for Physiotherapy, Nursing, Surveying and many other disciplines within one to two years. What’s more? Many of these professions that come with Postgraduate (Conversion) programmes are also shortage occupations in the UK, with very solid graduate prospect – best suited for students with plans to relocate, and simply like to stay and work in the UK after graduation!

In the Seminar, our education consultants will provide an overview of the Taught Postgraduate, Postgraduate (Conversion) and Pre Master’s programmes available in the UK. We will cover things like course structure, professional qualifications, tuition & other expanses, entry requirements and application procedures. We will also explore the shortage occupations together – you may be interested to know that currently many skilled occupations are in a labour shortage, including nurses, physiotherapists, biological scientists, graphic designers, engineers, web designers, information technology and software professionals and many others!

Speak to our Education Consultant after the Seminar

We strongly encourage students interested in applying for the September/2025 intake attend the seminar in person, so that we can arrange a consultation for you after the seminar to kick start your university and programme selection process. All students attending in person can take home a copy of our own UK Education Guide!

Content Highlights

  • Application Guidelines for Postgraduate (Conversion): Which subjects are the toughest to apply? What does it really mean when entry requirements ask for “qualifications and work experience in a related discipline”?
  • How do non-science students apply for Physiotherapy and other healthcare related prorgammes?
  • English Requirements and Different Types of IELTS: What’s IELTS for UKVI (Academic)? Under what circumstances may applicants be exempted from English language requirements?
  • When academic or language ability fall short, how do universities determine whether the applicant needs to study a 3-month, 6-month or a year-long Pre Master’s programme?
  • Employment in the UK: Graduates can stay and work in the UK with the BN(O) visa, Post-Study Work visa, or the Youth Mobility visa. What limitation do these different types of visas have?
  • Shortage Occupation: You may be interested to know that currently many skilled occupations are in a labour shortage in the UK, including nurses, physiotherapists, biological scientists, graphic designers, engineers, web designers, information technology and software professionals and many others!

Virtual Personal Statement Writing Workshop

Virtual Personal Statement Writing Workshop

Type: Virtual Academic Workshop
Target: F.5 or Above
Location: British United / Watch from Home

When students apply to universities through UCAS, they must provide a Personal Statement as part of their application. The Personal Statement explains their aspiration and other personality traits and is a crucial part of the application – sometimes more important than your predicted grades, extracurricular activities and other learning experience! When done well, the Personal Statement can help you stand out from applicants from around the world.

Problem is, what makes a good Personal Statement? Who will be reviewing your Personal Statement – Or is it still a real person newadays? What are they looking for in a Personal Statement so that they know you are a suitable candidate? How should you present yourself within the 4000 characters allowed?

Details of the Seminar

James Lavender

Course Facilitator Joining us virtually

Founder & Director of Hurdlers’ Education. First-class B.A degree in English Literature from University College London (UCL)

The workshop will be delivered by James Lavender, founder & director of online tutorial school Hurdlers’ Education. James will share their tips and strategies when they assist students in their application to G5 universities, medical schools and other highly competitive subjects. He will run through how to best structure a Personal Statement to demonstrate personal development across different paragraphs, and suggest some suitable higher-level language to use in each section. With a much better understanding of how to differentiate themselves, your new Personal Statements should read more like something a native British student might write!

How to Join

Students who would like to join the workshop are required to complete an in-person consultation with our education consultant. Simply register your interest via this post to start the process – our education consultants will contact you individually to arrange for a consultation!

Students who have completed a consultation before, do feel free to register here too. We will send you a confirmation after a simple verificaiton process.

Located in central Norwich, East of England, Norwich University of the Arts was established in 1845 and is now one of UK’s seven specialist art universities. While traditionally known for Fine Art, the University is also running forward-looking digital media programmes on VFX, User Experience Design, as well as Games Design:

Employability is at the heart of teaching in Norwich University of the Arts, and it’s recognized by industry for providing exceptional training for work-ready graduates. Starting from Year 2 of an undergraduate degree, there are opportunities for work placement and for students to work on live briefs. They are also encouraged to submit their work to open competitions.

Norwich University of the Arts is a creative community of 2700 students lead by a teaching staff who are themselves practicing artists and designers. The majority of its students are British and only 10% come from overseas. Notable alumni include Stuart Craig (Production Designer on Harry Potter film series), Brian Bolland (Graphic Novel Artist on Batman comics) and Keith Chapman (Creator of Bob the Builder).

In addition to undergraduate and postgraduate programmes, Norwich University of the Arts also provides foundation programmes in the form of a Year 0. Designed for students whose grades fall slightly short of the requirements of undergraduate year one, a Year 0 is an additional year attached to a standard 3-year undergraduate degree (students will be issued a visa that covers the whole 4-year period). Compared with a broad-learning art foundation, in the Year 0 students will focus on modules directly relevant to their art & design specialisms and be better prepared for their undergraduate degrees!

University for the Creative Arts (UCA) is a specialist art university in the UK, which teaches in diverse areas of visual arts (such as Animation, Architecture, Fashion Design, Film Production, Interior Design, Photography and more), with new ventures into new media such as Computer Games Design, Creative Coding & Technology.

University for the Creative Arts (UCA) has three main campuses located in cities in the south of England. With London within reach of a 30- to 60-minute train ride, students enjoy the great exposure to exhibitions and galleries in London, without the burden of London’s cost of living!

  • UCA Canterbury – Just an easy one-hour train journey from London and home to three universities, the historic city of Canterbury is a superb destination for international students! Fine Art, Architecture, Interior Architecture are particularly notable courses in UCA Canterbury. Other visual art courses include Illustration & Animation, Graphic Design, Creative Computing and many more!
  • UCA Epsom – Epsom is home to the unique UCA Business School for the Creative Industries, which as its name suggests offers a range of business courses tailormade for the creative industries, such as Advertising, Digital Marketing, Event & Promotion Management, Business Management and more. For creative courses, there are the options of Fashion Design, Fashion Promotion as well as Graphic Design. With access to creative workshops and studios, UCA Epsom is likely to be especially attractive for business-minded students with a strong passion for the creative industries, but might not want to pursue a career as a full-time artist or creator. You can perhaps be a marketer with strong creative skills instead!
  • UCA Farnham – Located in the traditional craft town of Farnham, UCA Farnham is the largest campus in terms of student population and course portfolio! These include a range of craft-based courses such as Fine Art, Ceramics & Glass, Textile Design, Jewellery & Silversmithing and more. There are also a wide range of visual art courses like Film Production, Animation, Digital Media, Games Arts & Technology, Graphic Design, Illustration, Interior Architecture, as well as Music Composition & Technology and an Acting course designed for the screen. Such wide range of courses is also why UCA Farnham is where the International Art Foundation is based – to allow students to get a taste of the widest range of specialisms!

Granted full university status in 2008, University for the Creative Arts (UCA) was formed with a merger between a few historical art schools with over 160 years of teaching experience. Over the years UCA graduates have worked in different sectors of the creative industries and have achieved international acclaim. They include a number of Oscar-winning animators, film director Gareth Edwards (director of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story and Godzilla), illustrator Martin Handford (creator of Where’s Wally?), animation artist Mark Baker (creator of Peppa Pig), jewellery designer Stephen Webster, as well as fashion designer Karen Millen.
