For adult learners (18+) - Whether you're looking to re-train, upskill or change career, at What Next you can have exclusive access to local employers to get your foot in the door, talk to organisations and discover what might be the best next steps for you. Our College staff can then inform you about the ideal course that will give you the key to unlocking your future. You can even apply or a course there and then!

For Year 11s - If you're not sure what you want to do after school, What Next will help you to find out about different roles from local businesses. You can then talk to the college staff to find out the right course to get you onto the career path that inspires you! If you do know what you want to go into, you might not know about some of the more specific roles that you can learn about from an employer that interests you.

For Year 10's - Now is the time to get ahead and find out more about the career paths that are open to you so that once once September rolls around you can make an informed decision in Year 11.  You can talk to the college staff about the the right course to get you onto the career path that inspires you! If you do know what you want to go into, you can gain more insight about some of the more specific roles  from an employer that interests you. We'll also have School Liaison staff on hand to answer questions about how the application process works and other relevant events that might help you in the decision making process. 

- Learn more about different industries
- Discover jobs you didn't know existed
- Talk to employers about the roles within their company
- Find out what qualifications and experience is needed for certain jobs
- What courses can get me to where I want to be.

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.
