Become a BSAS Buddy — An informal arrangement – allowing those in at a similar stage in their career to share experiences, be a sounding board and offer general support
A Buddy is
- An informal point of contact
- Someone to meet in an informal environment
- Someone who will reflect, with you, on their experiences at university/early career work place and share informal hints and tips on a wide range of related elements
- Help build confidence, encourage and give support on a flexible basis
A Buddy isn’t
- A counsellor
- A careers advisor
- A replacement for services, such as advice on finance or welfare
- A tutor or someone who will proof read assignments, documents and coursework
Benefits of having a Buddy
- Share experiences, practical advice, encouragement and support in a range of areas
- Learn from the experiences - students/those in early career
- Be part of the wider Buddy Up Scheme / Early Careers Forum and network that allows you to share your experiences
