Matt Tilston former Bucks College Group student recently got in touch to tell us about his experience at the college and how it helped him to get to where he is now. Matt studied our Level 3 Extended Diploma in Music Technology which is based out our Amersham campus, this course is designed to ‘equip you with the technical expertise required in Music Technology as well as training you in softer skills such as team work and project work.’
Our Level 3 Hair, Media Makeup students have organised and completed their final project, ‘The Festival of Living Horror’.
Some of our students from Foundation Learning Entry Level 3 took part in a session that gave them an introduction into further understanding UK Parliament.
We are pleased to be able to offer a number of course modules to adults for free, as part of the government’s Lifetime Skills Guarantee scheme, enabling adults to retrain, upskill or make a career change. The offer is backed by £95 million from the £2.5 billion National Skills Fund, which is financing programmes that both support the immediate economic recovery from the pandemic and help meet future skills needs.
Six colleges have worked together this lockdown to ensure their students don’t miss out on any work experience opportunities during these times. Over one thousand 16-18-year olds took part in the virtual work experience programme funded by the Department for Education (DFE), starting on 22 February 2021. Young people received online webinars to demonstrate the latest technologies in their business sectors and show them best practice from Top employers.
On Thursday 29th April, Film and TV students at Amersham had the opportunity to virtually meet with BAFTA nominated Writer and Director, Chris Fallon.
This year has been different for us at Bucks College Group in more ways than one.
Over the last few months at home, virtual classes and meetings have become a staple for all of us, a virtual Higher Education fair was however a first.
Buckinghamshire College Group is planning to develop a town centre site in High Wycombe to create a modern, purpose-built campus for technical, professional and vocational skills, education and training.
