College news

We are looking forward to seeing you at Bootcamp!!!

It's only one week away, and we're getting excited for the weekend. The office team have put in an immense amount of work on this, especially Guy, Claire, and Finn. And of course all the presenters have spent a lot of their time to prepare their talks. It will be a high-energy and fast-paced event. WIth 90 delegates attending the Bootcamp, and 75 or so attending the dinner, it will be a great weekend!

By Wednesday next week we will have sent out a final instructions email to Bootcamp attendees. It will cover what to expect, a timetable, links to view it online (if you can't attend in person), a QR code to access the online delegate handbook, and more.

Those attending the graduation ceremony and Fellowship dinner should have already received an email with more information about the evening activities. Please let us know if you did not receive this.

There's still time to buy Bootcamp tickets and even dinner tickets, though we'll close registrations at the beginning of next week.
Last chance to buy tickets!
