What can I expect to find?

This is a good way to see what it is like at Chelmsford College and to see the fantastic new build changes that are taking place. You will be able to look at the teaching rooms and workshops, take part in interactive activities, talk to the tutors about the various courses you are interested in, including Apprenticeships. Both the Moulsham Street and Princes Road campuses will be open.

You will also be able to meet and speak to current students to find out what it is like to study at the college.

We will also have staff available to talk to you about careers, additional learning support, travel and finance.
