In addition to our open days we are holding course taster days on Tuesday the 20th and Thursday 22nd November 2012. The taster days will give potential students the opportunity to find out more about the course, meet key staff, experience workshops, lessons and/or project work and help potential students to identify future directions and careers.

Our taster days will run from 9:45 a.m. to between 3:00 p.m. and 4:00 p.m. although finishing times will vary between courses.

You can book your place on one of our taster courses by filling out the taster day form on this page
