Has it Been a While Since Formal Study?

For many students, returning to university study after a significant time away, can mean students need to brush up on their writing and research based skills.
ACPACS  recommends that all new students, as well as those who are returning to study after more than five years,  attend our essay writing and research workshop.This workshop is FREE for all postgraduate students enrolled in an ACPACS course and more information can be downloaded here.
