College to host special open evening

Redcar & Cleveland College will be holding a special open evening on Wednesday 22^nd February to help prospective new students find out about courses.

The open evening will guide potential learners to find out how a new qualification can help them take the next steps to a rewarding career.

It will give a chance for anyone thinking of developing their skills to come along and find out about full and part-time courses and apprenticeships.

The college will also be holding ‘Have a Go’ taster sessions on the night where prospective students can get a chance to try out different skills including plastering, nail art, robotics and even a mock flight experience.

These mini-taster sessions are aimed at people who wish to develop their skills in a particular vocational area as well as being able to get advice and guidance from college tutors on the vast range of courses and apprenticeships available.

Career advisors will also be on hand to offer guidance to students who are about to take their GCSEs on what options are available to them for courses starting in September as well as providing information on new opportunities and career progression.

Current students will also be at the open evening to talk about their experiences of college life and exhibit their work as part of a skills showcase.

Gary Groom, Principal at Redcar & Cleveland College, said: “We’re inviting prospective students to come along to the open evening where they can learn about the wide range of subjects and courses on offer, and tour the campus to see how our facilities can give them a fantastic student experience and provide the best opportunities for learning.”

Further details of the range of courses available to students can be found in the college’s Prospectuses which are available to download from the homepage or by calling 01642 473132.
