A free confidence boosting and informative Creative arts & advice week is running from May 19-23 at the University of Bath's Oakfield Campus in Swindon.
The five-day workshop is open to all adult learners interested in entering further or higher education. Participants will be given information, advice and guidance and encouraged to explore their creativity with a range of art projects in a university setting, aimed at boosting their confidence allowing them to make life and career changes.
The morning sessions, lead by University of Bath staff and advisors, will focus on information, advice and guidance, including interview and presentation skills, university applications and more.
