About us

Inclusive support for disabled students

Please let us know if you would like to discuss any support needs. Some students find it beneficial to have 'reasonable adjustments', for example:

  • materials printed in different formats
  • help with contacting the team 
  • meetings conducted in a way that makes you comfortable. 

See examples of common adjustments. Please contact careers@brookes.ac.uk to discuss this further.

How to use your Careers service

Student Success Advisors

All careers enquiries start with the Student Success Advisors who are your first point of contact. They can help guide you to the most appropriate resources and support. The Student Success Advisors can answer a huge range of Careers-related queries and provide quick, easily accessible advice and guidance.

You will be invited to speak to one of the Student Success Advisors for an informal, diagnostic review of your requirements and circumstances.

You can choose an in-person or virtual 20-minute meeting with the Student Success Advisors, which can be booked up to 3 weeks in advance and subject to availability.

You may then be referred to meet with one of our Careers Consultants for a 20-minute, confidential discussion.

Meeting a Careers Consultant

If you are referred to speak to one of our Careers Consultants, you can choose an in-person or virtual 20-minute meeting, which can be booked up to 7 days in advance and subject to availability.

The Careers Consultant will work with you to identify appropriate approaches and resources, tailored to your particular circumstances. Our confidential one-to-one career consultations are supportive and aim to help you move forward faster than you would probably do on your own.
