ND CONNECTS
Portfolio Reviews
Returning for 2023 our programme of portfolio reviews was exclusively available for the ND Class of 23. Once again we teamed up with amazing brands to provide 1-2-1 opportunities for graduates to gain real-time feedback to their portfolios.
To provide as many opportunities as possible, we ran both face-to-face and virtual portfolio reviews.
- Face-to-face: both graduate and the design professional will meet at the Business Design Centre to have their session.
- Virtual: connect with design professionals who are based further afield, we will provide a laptop at the Business Design Centre for you to log in and join your reviewer virtually.
Lookback at the portfolio review slots below for a taste of what is to be expected from our 2024 ND Connects programme.
