Our Education Liaison team can deliver a range of presentations for students and parents keen to learn more about higher education. Talks cover topics such as student finance, the UCAS application process, writing personal statements, and preparing for university life.
We can also offer presentations directly to teachers on areas such as writing academic references and student finance. All our presentations can be delivered live virtually, physically on premises, or supplied pre-recorded (depending on current Government guidelines).
