The Applegate Academy provides 12 weeks work experience to six Petroc Business students. In this time, they experience how the business works, and offers students the opportunity to rotate around departments within the business. Three of these Academy students describe their experience, and what they have learnt.

Machine Learning Professor, Richard Everson at the University of Exeter, visited Petroc to deliver a talk to Applegate Workplace Degree Students and Academy Students on Machine Learning and a little bit of AI.

Leading Internet pioneer and non-executive director of Barnstaple-based firm Applegate Professor Jim Norton spoke on the increasing threat of cyber crime and the steps necessary to address it at the Digital Northern Devon event.

As the summer term approaches for students, you may want to be thinking about the career path you want to take come September, we are delighted to offer the Applegate Workplace Degree Programme to study Business Management starting in September 2018.

As we approach the long Easter Weekend, we’re offering our free service to ensure you can enjoy the break knowing all the important items are crossed off your to-do list.
