PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

PROGRAMME OVERVIEW

With a unique URL, seamless integration with existing systems, and fast onboarding, your students, alumni, and partners will have a smooth and personalized experience.

  • The heart of EC Connect is its ability to connect people. Your students, alumni, employer partners, and parents create profiles, rating their capabilities against the most sought-after skills in today’s job market. The platform then intelligently matches students with mentors who can help them grow, or they can search for expertise on their own. Through video calls, shared notes, and actionable feedback, students gain real-world insights and support.

  • Our skills engine doesn’t just match students with mentors—it also personalizes their learning journey. When a skill gap is identified, students are guided to self-paced online courses developed by industry leaders. They can earn micro-credentials and digital badges, enhancing their CVs and social media profiles, showcasing their readiness for future employers.

  • EC Connect goes beyond the classroom by facilitating work shadowing opportunities, directly connecting students with real-world experiences aligned to their skills and interests. The platform also provides robust data analytics, giving you insights into skill development, social capital, and the impact of learning and mentoring initiatives.

  • We understand that each school has unique needs, and our platform is fully customizable to align with your specific safeguarding policies and institutional goals. Our white-labelled solution allows you to maintain control over the features and parameters of usage, ensuring that it fits seamlessly into your school’s safeguarding framework.

Impact and outcomes

1

Alumni get to give back and support student development, but on their terms, giving the time and advice they can in a structured and controlled way. Alumni reconnect with classmates, tap into the wider alumni community, and rebuild their connection and affiliation to their school alma mater, and aren't lost to their university alma mater.

2

Schools build a powerful differentiator, a demonstration of their commitment to students' future success, a thriving alumni community who they can engage with and track long term. Delivered in a structured, intuitive and AI powered manner so that it can be delivered at scale. And gather all the real-time data to show this.

3

Students get to access the unique social capital your alumni community offers. They learn with and from their mentors, get work shadowing opportunities, build their skill profile for roles they aspire to, access learning content, webinars and events. And when they graduate, they become alumni in the community, continuing to engage, learn and ultimately give back themselves.
