"Coming to our open events will help you find out how East Riding College can help you progress into university, get the skills you need for work and enhance your prospects for promotion."

There will be tutors present from all subject areas who will answer questions and chat about the courses, as well as help with completing application forms. Visitors will be able to take a look at the excellent IT facilities which have benefited from a recent £1.5m investment in the latest information learning technologies and virtual learning environments at the Beverley and Bridlington campuses. People who go to the Bridlington information event will be able to see the new £17m campus, which opened in September.

The next East Riding College open events will be held on Saturday, March 13, from 10am to 1pm at Beverley and Saturday, March 20, from 10am to 1pm at Bridlington.
