Next steps

It's time to choose what you'd like to do next.

At the moment you are likely to be in one of these situations:

Going from year 1 to year 2 of your current course
Starting an apprenticeship or going into work
Moving up in the course area you’re currently studying in
Moving on to study a Degree
You want to stay at college but move to a new subject area
Looking to start a new course with a different provider

What Next?

You will have a review with your progress tutor. They will discuss your plan for next year and offer support and guidance.

Once you’ve agreed your plan, we’ll send you a progression certificate, followed by joining instructions for enrolment onto your next year of study.

  • Apprenticeships
    or Employment

    If you are moving onto an apprenticeship with the college then the apprenticeships team will be in touch with further options. If you are moving to an apprenticeship elsewhere, or going into work then you will NOT receive anything from the college. Please let us know the name and address of your employer.
