AN adult opportunities fair is to be held in Exeter this week, where people can find out how to develop their skills and careers.
Exeter College is hosting the free event this Wednesday in conjunction with the launch of its new part-time courses guide.
There will be free seminars on a variety of different subjects, including starting your own business and English as a second language.
There will also be demonstrations about what you can learn on different courses available at the college.
Guests can also find out more about the wide range of technical, professional and recreational courses on offer and enrol at the fair on the day.
Experts from Exeter and Bicton colleges, the Open University, Exeter and Plymouth universities and Nextstep will also be on hand to answer questions.
Chris Lorimer, director of business and marketing at the college and ambassador for the Echo’s Bites Back campaign, said this was exactly what the city needed.
He said: “It is an opportunity for people who have just been made unemployed, or feel they may be at risk of unemployment, and are looking to enhance their skills or even change their career entirely.
“It will give them a wide range of opportunities to hear directly about how training and development can help them succeed.”
The fair will be held on Wednesday from 5pm until 8pm at the Centre for Creative Industries, opposite Exeter Central Station, in Queen Street, Exeter.
