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 provide further updates when restrictions are lifted.
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.
LEVEL-UP DURING LOCKDOWN
To support distance learning, the DANCOP team have created the ‘Level-Up during Lockdown Programme’- a series of workshops that can be completed at home, aimed at developing students’ knowledge and skills for Higher Education and employment.
Students who complete three or more activities will be entered into a prize draw to win a number of £50 Amazon vouchers!
