Employers return to us on a regular basis knowing that our students will have had a realistic and practical training for the design workplace and that great care will have been taken to match the student to the requirements of the practice.

KLC is very proactive about helping graduates find employment at the end of the course. Marcy Brown, Director of Careers, assists students in finding suitable employment or work experience and graduates from KLC professional courses are now employed by a range of prestigious companies (a list is available here). Marcy is available to offer advice on CV’s, portfolio presentation and career direction and, with many approaches from some of the leading design companies, is often able to put graduates directly in touch with potential employers.

KLC keeps in close contact with past students worldwide through the KLC Design Network and continues to offer on-going careers advice. As a participant in many leading design exhibitions, our policy is to involve students both past and present, as fully as possible. Many graduates return after experience in the field to become our tutors. KLC will put any design enquiries from members of the public through to practising graduates.
