Staying on track
Once a year, a team made up of Academic Managers, Student Liaison Advisers, and career consultants visits centres around the country to host 'Staying on track' events. Current and prospective students can drop in to explore their next academic and career steps. Career consultants offer career guidance; Student Liaison Advisers assist you to translate this into appropriate academic study, and College representatives are able to help with the detailed degree structuring. You can find details of the next Staying on Track schedule by following this link:
