17th September 2026 - MPCT College Open Day - 1-3pm We would like to extend a formal invitation to you to attend our upcoming open day event at MPCT Croydon on the 17th of September. The event will provide an opportunity to discuss and showcase learners’ abilities and achievements, as well as outline our course pathways in education. Timings will be confirmed in late August/early September, but it will roughly be 1300 – 1500. We will have commenced our new academic year (17th August) and it would be great for you to witness the great work that has been put in by our learners following GCSE results and the start of their MPCT course. There are still spaces available for suitable and eligible potential learners. So, if you know someone seeking a challenge, who has an interest in the Uniformed Services then MPCT could be for them. We are happy to enrol suitable candidates to support their fitness and physical development, while broadening their military knowledge in preparation for the Assessment Centre, or for successful applications to a service and role of their choice, or their preferred civilian employment. Additionally, funding is available in the form of bursary support for travel and uniform. We welcome applicants from 16 up to 25 years of age.
