What is Career Coaching?
Career coaching provides objective, independent support to help you with your career decisions. Each session is tailored to your needs and is completely confidential. Coaches are experienced at working with senior executives at all career stages through to C-level.
Career coaching is available to alumni from all programmes, wherever you are in the world.
Each alumnus is entitled to two complimentary one-hour career coaching sessions per calendar year.
How to book
To enquire about coaching, or to book a session, please contact the Alumni Career Centre at alumnicareercentre@london.edu giving your name, degree programme attended, time zone / location, and a short outline of what support you are looking for so we can match you with the best coach.
Coaching is only by appointment; no drop-in service is available on campus.
Anticipate a two-week lead time on bookings.
To cancel your arranged session you must give 48 hours’ notice to avoid the session counting as one of your two free sessions. Please email your coach and copy in alumnicareercentre@london.edu when you wish to cancel.
