Please see attached flyer with information about a careers fair we are holding at NESCol Fraserburgh Campus on 3rd March, a great opportunity for pupils to come along and find out about career paths and speak to college staff and employers. Pupils will have the opportunity to find out course specific information, career pathways, help with applying for courses, tours of the building and to find out what employers are looking for (from the horse’s mouth!). For more information or to arrange, please to get in touch!
Students often struggle when it comes to getting work experience in Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary. That is why we have created our FREE Virtual Work Experience Programme.
Our Programme has now relaunched as a free resource students can access any time of day as E-learning. This is a fantastic free resource for you to let your students know about as it will help them make an informed decision about a career in Medicine, Dentistry or Veterinary.
Once they complete all sessions they also receive a certificate which can be used as part of their application to Medical, Dental or Veterinary School.
At Medic Mentor we are always striving to level the playing field when it comes to applying to Medicine, Dentistry and Veterinary. This free work experience aims to help raise aspirations and find the next brilliant mind to join these fields. Thank you for passing this on to your students.
