Higher Education (University Level)
Thank you for your interest in Nottingham College and our exciting all year round events programme. Please be aware that due to the COVID-19 pandemic and strict government guidance, we have cancelled or postponed all events. we will update this page as and when restrictions are lifted.
We can tailor visits for individual schools and colleges ensuring they provide a mix of both general information and subject specific information to meet students’ needs.
Nottingham College’s University Centre staff can also support at post-16 career events and deliver college based higher education information sessions in school.

Higher Education Outreach Activities for Years 9-13
Widening Participation in Higher Education
Nottingham College University Centre is part of DANCOP- a collaborative network between universities and colleges across Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire that exists to provide targeted higher education outreach programmes to secondary schools and colleges across the two counties. We are proud to be a part of the National Collaborative Outreach Programme and our work focuses on specific target wards where we have the opportunity to inspire and inform about higher education and the opportunities it brings.
Teachers
Working DANCOP provides you with the opportunity to access a range of Higher Education outreach activities for years 9-13, information sessions for parents and CPD opportunities for you and colleagues.
The activities that we can offer include information sessions on all of the topics you and your learners might want to know about higher education and higher degree apprenticeships, finance and budgeting, writing personal statements and a range of hands-on subject taster sessions.
Students
If you are aged 13-18 and live Derbyshire and Nottinghamshire, we may be working with your school or college to offer you the opportunity to learn more about Higher Education, including Higher and Degree Apprenticeships. In the meantime you can find out more from the DANCOP resources pages: http://www.teamdancop.co.uk/ or alternatively you can view our leaflet.
