We have a wide range of learning opportunities available and have developed a student journey that will support you during your time at the college through three terms to your next steps and graduation.
When you enrol at the college for your first term one of our Peer Tutors will guide you through the enrolment process and your first individual learning plan. Together you will look at what you want to learn, why you want to learn it and how it might help you in your recovery and wellbeing. If you feel you would like to continue at the college for a second term you will need to attend an individual learning plan review. This will provide you with an opportunity to review the positive outcomes gained from your learning in the first term and will enable you to plan your individual learning goals and course choices for the second term and third term.
Please view our process below:
All the courses at the Nottingham Recovery College are co-produced. This means that there is a group of people involved in thinking about and developing any new courses, all of whom have their own “expertise”.
The overall objective of the co-production sessions is to produce an educational, recovery focused, co-produced course. Members of the co-production group can be experts by expertise or experts by lived experience.
“Experts working together in a process of shared decision making”
Peer tutors accompany and support you on your journey of learning from enrolment to graduation.
In the peer tutor team, everyone has lived experience of mental health challenges; they are experienced peer tutors, whose role in the Recovery College is an educational one. They aim to support learning using the recovery principles of hope, opportunity and control.
They share elements of their lived experience and personal recovery journeys to help inspire hope and break down barriers. This will help support you on your own learning and recovery journeys to achieve your goals and aspirations.
