QAC 'Next Steps' Transition Event

On Tuesday 13 February, QAC hosted a ‘Next Steps' transition event for current 1st and 2nd year students and their families.

The event included a series of short talks with a focus on support internships, as well as the opportunity to meet a range of providers from further and higher education, employment, training, supported living and adult social care services.

Over 45 students and their families visited throughout the morning to meet with the range of exhibitors in attendance. We are extremely grateful to all the providers for taking time out of their busy schedules to support the event and talk with our students, and an extra thank you to OCS for providing refreshments.
