Advice for all at college’s weekend event
Posted: 05 May 2023
A Saturday information event is on the horizon at West Nottinghamshire College to give both 16-to-18 year-olds and adults a chance to find out more about college life and studies.
The open event on 20 May will be at the college's Derby Road campus
On Saturday 20 May, the open event, which runs from 10am to 1pm at the Derby Road campus in Mansfield, will enable visitors to speak to tutors from all curriculum areas including sport, health and social care, hairdressing, catering, childcare, uniformed protective services, business, construction and more.
There will be information available for individuals aged 19 and above who are looking to study either a course in areas such as hairdressing and beauty therapy, construction or childcare, a short course in a hobby-related area such as digital photography, art and crafts or floristry, or even an Access to Higher Education programme, designed to prepare adults for university-level studies.
Those who are looking to study at the college after school can learn more about life at college, the kind of experience they will get in a college classroom, and discover the extra-curricular activities open to them once they become a student.
Student support teams such as financial support and additional learning support will be available to advise individuals on the help they can offer to students whilst at the college.
Additionally, the careers team and apprenticeship team will be available for potential new students and their parents to speak to, to help them to decide which career path they might wish to choose.
