What is the Student Online Self-Development Programme?
Together with high performance consultancy Sporting Edge, Santander Universities are providing students with the opportunity to access an online learning platform with powerful stories and insights from elite performers.
We'll be selecting 19 students to take part, where you’ll complete an online course (consisting of eight hours) which will focus on performance themes including personal drive, learning mindset, confidence, and many more.
Once you’ve completed each module, you’ll then have the opportunity to consolidate your learning and complete an online quiz.
Four students with the highest scores across all modules, and from all participating universities, will win a Santander Development grant of £10,000 each! This will support you with your professional and/or personal development (for example, funding your tuition fees, paying for travel costs to interviews, supporting start-ups, etc.).
What do I need to do to apply to take part?
Applications open online on 16 October until 16 November. You can apply through the Santander website.
You’ll need to complete a few questions, including why you want to take part, and how you feel the programme will benefit you.
Applications will then be considered by a panel and you’ll be contacted if you’ve been selected to take part.
What happens if I’m selected?
If selected to take part, you’ll be able to complete the course from Monday 11 January until Friday 19 February 2021.
The online material will be accessible to students until mid-March 2021 in case you want to review or revisit any of the information. However, you must complete all of the online tests before the 19 February 2021 in order to be able to win one of the four prizes.
The four winners will be communicated on Wednesday 24 February 2021 by email from the Director of Santander Universities UK.
