No, whilst there will be College staff available to speak to at the event, the big difference is the presence of employers. This event has a larger focus on careers and inspiring decisions that will then lead to enrolling on a course that will lead to the desired destination. That being said, there will be team of friendly faces manning an application station where you can apply on the night.
