How can I attend an open event at North Lindsey College?

Updated

North Lindsey College publishes its open event dates on the college website under "Upcoming Events," and you can attend by turning up at the listed time and location — no separate registration link is shown in the site's event listings. The events are held at North Lindsey College itself, and the published sessions run from 4:30 pm to 7:00 pm. If you want to confirm arrangements or find sessions beyond those listed, use the "See More Events" link on the events section of the website.

Open events currently listed

The website's Upcoming Events section shows the following sessions:

Event Date Time Location
FE Open Event 13 October 2026 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm North Lindsey College
FE Open Event 19 January 2027 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm North Lindsey College
Apprenticeship Open Event 11 February 2027 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm North Lindsey College
FE Open Event 22 June 2027 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm North Lindsey College

Two types of event appear here:

  • FE Open Events — general further education open events, useful if you are exploring study areas and courses.
  • Apprenticeship Open Event — a dedicated session if you are interested in apprenticeship routes rather than classroom-based study.

How to prepare before you go

Because the listings give a time and a place but no ticketing detail, the practical steps are:

  1. Check the event listing on northlindsey.ac.uk before travelling, in case dates or times are updated.
  2. Look at the study areas menu on the site so you arrive knowing which subject areas you want to ask about.
  3. Use "See More Events" if none of the four published dates suit you — the site indicates additional events may be listed there.
  4. Arrive within the 4:30 pm – 7:00 pm window. The published format is an open drop-in period rather than a single fixed start time, so you can arrive at a point that suits you.

What to expect and what to ask

Open events at a further education college are typically the point where you can speak to staff and see facilities. Given the college's recent news items, current course developments include a new Esports course with specialised equipment and an expanding animal care provision — useful topics to ask about if those areas interest you.

Questions worth bringing:

  • Which courses start in the next academic year, and what entry requirements apply?
  • What is the difference between the FE route and the apprenticeship route for your subject?
  • What support is available for students, and how do applications work after the event?

Common sticking points

  • No registration step is shown. The site lists dates, times and venue but does not publish a booking form in the event listings, so plan to attend directly and check the site again closer to the date.
  • Dates are spread across academic years. The listed events run from October 2026 through June 2027, so pick the one that matches when you need to make a decision.
  • FE and apprenticeship events are separate. If you are weighing both routes, you may need to attend two different sessions.

For anything not covered in the event listing — such as accessibility arrangements or whether a specific subject will be represented — contact the college directly through the details on its website.
