Tutor Approval

Course Applications 2011/2012

For the majority of our courses you can enrol online or in person at Reception, but some of our courses require tutor approval and interview (see the course outline for details) in which case we need you to complete an application form in advance.  This allows us to book a time for your interview and, if necessary, to let you know if you need to allow extra time for a pre-course assessment.

The Expression of Interest form for courses requiring tutor approval can be downloaded here (please choose the appropriate form):

Expression of Interest Form 2011/2012 [DOC, 76 KB] *  

Expression of Interest form for learners aged 16-18 on 31/8/11 [DOC, 292 KB]

* Please note this is NOT an enrolment form and does NOT guarantee you a place on a course.

Please complete the form and send it via email to iag@racc.ac.uk along with details of your availability for interview, or download it and complete in black pen and post it to the address below.  Please allow at least five working days.  We will then contact you back to confirm your interview appointment time.
