Our #TeamKC Enterprise Shop is now open!🎃 Our Enterprise students have officially opened their shop, and they’ve been busy getting everything ready for staff and students to pop in and have a look.

Our Level 3 Uniformed Public Services students took their learning out of the classroom this week as they tackled the challenging terrain of Pendle Hill 💪🏻 🌲 Throughout the hike, they put their map-reading, compass and navigation skills into practice while also developing their confidence in navigating an unfamiliar environment.

They all did brilliantly! 👏🏻

What a brilliant two days at #TeamKC with @loudspeakerlive! 😃 Joni and Matt joined us at Kidderminster College to deliver the NCG Guarantee workshops, helping bring the five key areas of the NCG Guarantee to life for our students. From exploring new ideas to sharing experiences with their peers, students were encouraged to think about the role the NCG Guarantee plays in their personal development. The workshops highlighted how skills in areas such as digital awareness, mental fitness and employability can help students make the most of their time at college and prepare for what comes next. A huge thank you to Joni and Matt for bringing so much energy to the sessions! ⭐ #NCGGuarantee #NCGCommunity #StudentOpportunities

Building industry connections beyond the classroom 🏛️🤝 Students across our Law and Criminology courses recently welcomed the Northumbria Violence Reduction Unit as part of an exciting live brief project. The partnership was created to help learners gain valuable industry insight and real-world experience in a sector where traditional work placements can be difficult to access. Throughout the project, students will work with professionals from the VRU and other partner organisations, developing knowledge, employability skills and a deeper understanding of careers within the justice and criminology sector. They'll also have the opportunity to complete VRU Ambassador training and showcase their work at a professional poster exhibition later this year. A huge thank you to Steven Hume, the wider VRU team and everyone at the Northumbria Police and the Northumbria Police and Crime Commissioner's Office for supporting our learners and helping create these fantastic opportunities. #Criminology #Law #CareerReady
