North Warwickshire & Hinckley College will be holding a series of coffee mornings to help people who are facing redundancy, have recently been made redundant or have been unemployed for a while.

The coffee mornings will allow people to drop in and speak to an adviser about the range of courses the College has on offer to help people get back into work.

Development Manager Lorraine Broadaway said: "We are offering these informal coffee mornings so that people who are facing redundancy or who have been made redundant can come and talk to us about the ways the College can help. We have a range of courses on offer and can also provide support with skills such as CV writing and job searches."

Government Minister Kevin Brennan today congratulated North Warwickshire & Hinckley College for its creativity in using interactive technology to enhance the learning experience of its students.

The Further Education Minister visited the College on Tuesday 23 February, when it hosted an event to showcase the best uses of digital technology in the sector.

The College was awarded the accolade of becoming a British Educational Communications and Technology Agency (BECTA) Exemplar organisation for its innovative work with technology. The BECTA network will provide support to over two million students and 50,000 Further Educations Lecturers and Trainers and as a member of the network the College has the opportunity to share ideas and seek support.
