Student Training and Experience Programme

The Student and Academic Services Directorate has provided training for students for many years. The sessions that we offer help students get ahead in their studies and develop key life skills.

We are pleased to announce our programme of events for the coming term, covering areas such as careers advice, study advice and skills, IT training, maths support, and counselling and wellbeing. Attending these sessions will not only help you gain invaluable skills, it will also count toward the new Reading Experience and Development (RED) Award. (Visit the RED Award website for more information).

Please note: Sessions marked with an asterisk(*) do not count toward the 'training and development' element of the RED Award - all other sessions do.
