College Open Events have gone online, with the Virtual Exeter College Experience offering all learners considering joining us in 2021 the information they need to make the right decision for their future.   

What is a Virtual Experience? 

As an Ofsted Outstanding provider, we’re passionate about continuing to innovate for you, our learners, so we’ve put together a suite of online content, including videos, Q&As and blogs, to help you get all the information you need at your fingertips before choosing to study with us. Our aim is that you will be able to access everything you would at a traditional open event.  

As part of the Virtual Exeter College Experience, interactive subject Q&A sessions will be available on Tuesday 19^th January 2021. On this date, there will also be a WebChat feature live on the website, giving you the chance to ask questions to subject leaders throughout the evening online.

How do I register? 

You can register online now. This will give you access to exclusive videos on facilities, subject areas and what makes us an exceptional learning environment.  

By registering for the Virtual Exeter College Experience, you can also use the LiveChat function on the website on the above dates, getting another chance to speak directly with lecturers or one of our specialist support teams on what it’s like to study with us.  

Once you’ve registered, you’ll receive a confirmation email with links to the pages you want access to, and you’ll also receive emails in the run-up to Live Events to remind you when interactive sessions are going live.

Who can register?
