Taster sessions at UHI Outer Hebrides, formerly Lews Castle College, which start tomorrow (Wednesday May 4) are being described as a great way to find out about a subject area and decide if it’s the right option for you.
UHI Outer Hebrides says: "With opportunities to join our Food & Drink staff to try some cooking, to design your own room in 3D CAD and printing in Engineering, sharpen your business skills and so much more there is something for everyone thinking about taking their next steps in education.
"Our subject tasters are aimed at anyone who wants to learn something new. Whether you are a potential applicant, current student, or someone who just fancies finding out more about a subject or our campus, these sessions are designed to give you a feel for what it might be like to study with UHI Outer Hebrides.
"All our tasters are an hour long and are completely free.
"Staff will also be on hand in our Student Support Centre to answer questions about courses, applying, funding and support."
