Build Your Profile

We built Rise to support Manchester Met students to shape their own stories. We want to give you access to opportunites which enrich your experience, and which help you to reach your goals.

And we want to help you to tell the world how amazing you are, and to make the most of your experiences. At it's heart Rise is all about your story.

Our partnership with LinkedIn is the next evolution of this. In an exclusive integration, Rise will now award you points for building your profile and sharing your story. Through the coming months, we'll be adding new coaching support to enhance how well you use the platform.
