York Strengths
Feel happier, learn faster, have more energy
Strengths are who we are at our best.
When you use your strengths - the things you are good at, and love to do - it doesn't feel like work. You'll be happier, more confident, more resilient, perform better and more effective at self-development.
Taking part in York Strengths will give you the opportunity to take part in a range of innovative activities, and can help you to:
- Find out more about yourself, and how to make the most of what you have to offer
- Support your personal development and make the most of your time at University
- Identify careers that suit you, and make better decisions for your future
- Build your confidence in talking about your strengths, and demonstrating them to employers.
You can complete York Strengths by:
- attending a Development Session (available to undergraduate first years)
OR - completing York Strengths Online (all students)
Dedicated workshops for Masters students take place in November, and can be booked via Handshake.
York Strengths is open to all students of the University, with different elements available for undergraduate, postgraduate taught, postgraduate research or distance learning students.
