Information, Advice and Guidance

We offer an Information, Advice and Guidance service on a range of learning and career opportunities, providing support for all customers and enrolled students in the College.

A wide range of information, advice and guidance is available including:

• Full-time and part-time prospectuses
• Course content, entry requirements and application forms
• Financial Support for students at college
• Childcare Support
• Travel to and from college, possible costs and support
• Referral to specialist agencies that may be able to help you

If you need to discuss your options for career planning in further detail then you can use our Guidance service. This service is offered on an individual interview basis with one of our professional guidance advisers. You can also get assistance with your employability skills e.g. help with application forms, drafting your C.V. or job search.

We aim to respond to all enquiries within three working days of receipt.

Welfare

This service is available to all learners of our college. The advisers can help with a range of practical and personal problems including:

Resources

We have up to date careers and welfare information in the Learning Resource Centres at each of our three sites. They contain up to date material on Higher Education, Job search, C.V and Interview technique.

Referral

We try to help all customers with their enquiries but there may be occasions when we are not the best people to assist you. If this is the case we may refer you to another source of help either within the college or to an external organisation. We have a strong partnership with Connexions who are available in the college providing support to 14-19 year olds.

We will discuss the reason for any referral with you and give you the right information to help you contact the relevant services or agencies.
