Kristianstad Akademi

Through an EU-funded project, companies will get help from student consultants for free to develop their business. At the same time, students receive personal development and salary for hours spent on the project. Today we can see a strong need for skills supply as a criterion for keeping students and companies attractive in the market. Take the chance to develop through Kristianstad Akademi! Take the opportunity to develop by becoming a student consultant!

What is the purpose of the project?

Kristianstad Akademi is undergoing an EU-funded project where the purpose is for businesses and students to get in touch with each other. As a student consultant, you and other students will carry out projects together with small and medium-sized companies. We are now looking for students who want to complete various projects.

What does it mean to be a student consultant?

As a consultant, you work project-oriented and get paid for the agreed hours included in the project (120 SEK per hour). In addition to salary, you will receive an invaluable deposit in the work experience account. The project’s length can vary between 10–40 hours, depending on the project’s extent or how many students there are on the project. You will complete one project at a time.

As an active student consultant at Kristianstad Academy, you give yourself a chance for personal development in addition to your studies. It is your curiosity and desire for personal development that is the basis for the outcome. You get in touch with employers in the region and get the opportunity to work with real consulting services that can lead to employment. In addition, we will create inspiring workshops that will generate personal development. Through our educational efforts, student consultants can be inspired by other like-minded students who want to develop in leading themselves. 

No obligation to participate in all projects that come up. It is always you who decides whether you have the time, energy, and ability to get involved in a project. You register your interest in what you want to implement. In some cases, you will be in a team with several different students from different programs, so there will be many different views when you take on a project. You will be able to learn a lot from each other.

Earlier projects

• Hästveda - the municipality wanted help with how they could do to attract more residents and create a stronger brand.
• Digital marketing - Small companies that have had websites that did not work, have not been recognized in the market or require help to digitize their way of reaching customers etc.
• Everöds Airport wanted help to systematize their work environment. Got help formulating rules and routines for how the employer must regularly examine, assess risks, and promote a better work environment.

What is required?

• Interest - that's actually all that is required. Interest in developing yourself, especially with companies!
• Ability to think - The projects require innovative thinking (this you will be trained through "crash courses" which is an education Kristianstad Akademi offers all student consultants → Toy Imagine).
• Orientation (ie what education you go to or what type of project it is) is not the interesting thing - Your interest is the most valuable. (of course, the right knowledge is needed for some projects to be possible to implement).

What does this mean?

• Students come up with innovative ideas in something that exists but does not work in the business.
• You get paid to be creative.
• You open up the possibilities for yourself.
• You get the opportunity to use the tools you get through your studies in internships.
• You get contacts and create references for future career.
• It is the interest that counts.
• Crash courses are offered (with a focus on innovation).
