Opportunities for access
Orbital South Colleges' (OSC) offers a comprehensive Careers Education, Information, Advice and Guidance programme and an overview of this programme can be seen in the College Careers Strategy which can be seen on both East Surrey College and John Ruskin College websites.
Please speak to our Careers Advisor to identify the most suitable opportunity for you.
The college will make a suitable space available for discussions between the provider and students, as appropriate to the activity. The college will also make available ICT and other specialist equipment to support provider presentations. This will all be discussed and agreed in advance of the visit with the Careers Advisor or a member of their team.
Providers are welcome to leave a copy of their prospectus or other relevant course literature with the Careers Advisor so that they can be displayed in our Careers Hub.
