Whilst we urge you always to prioritise your studies and strive to achieve the best results possible, we also encourage you to take part in the extra curricula activities which are made available to you at College. Every student automatically becomes a member of the UCM Student Association which puts on a number of events and fundraisers throughout the year. Look out for more information during induction and consider taking an active role in Lulu Gillow Manager of Student Experience &Pastoral Care the Association (it’ll look great on your CV!). You will also be offered the opportunity to complete the ‘UCM Employability Skills Course’ which gives you the chance to explore and practice the kinds of skills employers like their workforce to have. If you successfully complete this short course, you will receive a certificate, which will also look good on your CV and will certainly give you something to talk about during job interviews! This handbook has been designed to provide you with key information about support services at UCM, as well as giving you more details about the fun things you can do whilst you’re here. But, if there is anything else you would like to know, if you feel you would like some personal advice and guidance, pop in to the Student Services Centre where one of the team will be happy to help. We’re here to help you to be the best you can be. Good luck with your studies and enjoy your time at UCM! Lulu Gillow Manager of Student Experience &Pastoral Care 3 UCM Dates COLLEGE TERM DATES 2018/2019 AUTUMN TERM 2018 • Induction for first year FE students Monday 3rd September – Friday 7th September • Start Monday 10th September • Half Term Monday 29th October – Friday 2nd November • End Friday 21 December SPRING TERM 2019 • Start Monday 7th January • Half Term Monday 18th February – Friday 22nd February • End Friday 5th April SUMMER TERM 2019 • Start Tuesday 23rd April • Bank Holidays Monday 6th May & Monday 27th May • TT Week Monday 3rd June – Friday 7th June • End Friday 28th June 4 General Information Lunchtimes & Facilities The majority of courses will have lunch either from 12:15 – 1:15 p.m. or 1:15 – 2:15 p.m. The facilities available to you will depend on where your campus is located. The Refectory, located at the main campus, provides a selection of hot and cold meals and snacks. Other campuses have well stocked vending machines or you may want to consider bringing a packed lunch. You will receive a timetable during your induction; times of breaks and lunch hours will vary. Generally though, if you have a two-hour lesson you will be given a 15-minute break and if you are in for a substantial part of the day, you will be given an hour’s break for lunch. The first day of your course We realise that on the first day at UCM you may be feeling nervous, but don’t worry! There are many students in the same position and the staff will do their best to make you feel at ease and settle you into your new course in no time. The first week of your course will be about introducing you to staff, other students on your course and the facilities available to you. What should I wear to UCM? Some courses do not have a dress code so casual wear is fine. For certain courses you will be asked to wear specific clothes or a uniform. This should have been discussed with you at interview; contact us if in doubt. What do I need for my course? You may need specific tools or equipment but you should have been told about this at interview. Don’t forget also that the reception stocks a wide range of stationery and you can also purchase mobile credit there too. www.ucm.ac.im 5 Cards, grants and lockers Welcome Postcard Your welcome postcard has a dual purpose; in addition to giving you details about when you start it can also be used as proof that you are a student to travel on the bus while you are waiting to be issued with your permanent Student Card. Depending on your circumstances, you may be entitled to purchase a Go College Card from IOM Transport for a further discounted travel rate, for further information see pages 7 + 8. Student Card When you have formally enrolled as a full-time student during induction week, you will be issued with your permanent Student Card. The initial card is free of charge but in order to collect it you must bring some identification with you e.g: school smart card, birth certificate, passport, driving licence etc. Replacement cards can be purchased from Student Services at a cost of £3 per card. Student Grants If you are over 18 on 1st September then you may have had to apply for a grant otherwise you may be charged course fees. If you have been awarded a maintenance (living expenses) grant your payment will be made termly into your bank account. If you have been awarded a ‘fees only’ grant then you will need to either hand in your award letter, or forward the email to [email protected] Lockers There are many lockers located around the campuses, please see either your Tutor or Student Services if you would like one. A non-refundable £5 charge will be made per locker. 6 Where to Eat There is no doubt that as you study hard you will need to refuel your body and brain by maintaining a healthy balanced diet. Here at the UCM we have a variety of options available to you. The Refectory – Homefield Road Campus This is the main eatery at the College where you will find a selection of homemade dishes using locally produced ingredients available on a daily basis, along with an extensive salad bar and healthy options including foods suitable for those requiring vegan, vegetarian or gluten free choices. Please note that the Refectory stops serving hot food at 2:30pm on a Friday. You are of course welcome to bring in a packed lunch or food from other establishments to consume in the Refectory or outdoor seating areas located around the College. Vending machine facilities are available outside of the normal Refectory opening times. For those located in the William Kennish building, it is just a short stroll up to the main College campus with access to the Refectory, alternatively there is a vending machine, microwave and kettle available for student use. If you are located at Hills Meadow there are vending machines serving snacks and hot and cold drinks. Free School Meals If you are in receipt of free school meals, you need to collect your voucher from the Main College Reception and it can then be used to purchase food in the College Refectory. Outside Eating Areas It’s always good to get some fresh air and recharge those batteries after a hard session of studying; there are a number of outdoor eating areas situated around the College which may be utilised during breaks, although we please ask that you keep these areas tidy. 77 Travel & Buses We recommend you travel to UCM by bus, as we have limited parking and we like to promote sustainable transport. Depending on your age and how much you will use the bus here are your options: 1. Go Easy: Smart Card Going to use the bus a lot? Head down to the Welcome Centre in the sea terminal over the summer period and see which Go easy card you are entitled to. You can get unlimited travel on Bus Vannin for 28 days which will cost between £40-£80 depending on your age. 2. SCH3: Smart Card Only planning to use the bus from your home to College and back? If you are 19 or under and full time you are entitled to a SCH3 smart card, this card will be valid during College term time on journeys to/from College. A College ID card must also be carried and shown to the driver. All journeys between home and College taken within the time limits, will cost 30p and will be deducted from the card each time it is used. Still not sure what to do? Visit www.bus.im or talk directly to Bus Vannin representatives at the College during induction. Bus timetables are available at www.bus.im For queries, contact the Welcome Centre bus enquiry line on 662525. At the start of the academic year, don’t forget to bring your ‘Welcome Postcard’ which gives you the concessionary rate until you receive your student card/bus pass. Please note you cannot get any concessionary travel on the X3 ‘Manx Express’ or ‘Hullad Oie’ (Night Owl). 8 Buses from the main areas of the Island which get you to College by 9.00am, September 2018 The North: The Service 3 College/Douglas Schools bus leaves Ramsey bus station at 7.30.

  • How to Get Around the Isle of Man Public Transport
    How to get around the Isle of Man Public Transport Let public transport take the strain while at the Isle of Man TT. Travel on the extensive bus network or hop on board the Victorian rail network, you’ll find getting around the island easy and cost-effective. Buses The island has an extensive bus network - Bus Vannin - which serves the whole of the island on a regular basis including the Isle of Man airport and the Sea Terminal in Douglas. An increased late night bus service operates on Friday and Saturday evenings which serves all the main towns. Buy a multi-journey ticket which will help you travel around the island. The 3, 5 or 7 day Explorer ticket allows unlimited travel on all scheduled railway services, the Douglas Horse Trams and most bus services. Tip : The bus service goes around the TT course from Douglas to Ramsey when the road is open, there is no access once the road is closed. No bus service travels along the mountain section from Ramsey to Douglas, but you can access the bungalow area using the mountain railway. Railway The Isle of Man boasts three heritage railways – the Manx Electric Railway, Steam Railway and Snaefell Mountain Railway – which will transport you to your chosen destination in style. The Electric railway travels from Douglas to Ramsey via Laxey, where you can also join the Snaefell Mountain Railway. You can take the Steam Railway from Douglas to Port Erin with stops in Castletown, Port St Mary amongst others. Tip: The Electric trams are not affected by the TT course being closed.

  • Appendix. 25 (A) Public Transport
    Work Package 14 IMPACT Report Appendix 25(a) Promote the use of public transport 1. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1.1. The challenge this report seeks to address is to reduce the volume of emissions from transport, specifically travel by private vehicle, through the promotion of public transport. 1.2. On the Isle of Man the primary form of public transport is a whole island bus service (Bus Vannin), provided by the Transport Services Division of the Isle of Man Government Department of Infrastructure (DOI). 1.3. A heritage railway does operate but journey times, cost and frequency make them unviable as regular public transport options as they exist today. A further piece of work to understand the operating costs and options available to develop the Isle of Man Railway network into a valuable public transport system should be undertaken. 1.4. The UK Parliamentary Report into bus services in England outside London, published in May 2019, reported that people’s choice of transport is influenced by convenience, frequency, reliability, journey length and cost. 1.5. A sample research exercise undertaken in the Isle of Man provided an indication that residents identified with those same issues. 1.6. This report considers further exploration and action that may need to be taken to address these issues and any other barriers identified. 1.7. The improvement of real time customer information through personal digital devices and public digital screens at key bus stops would increase the level of information available for customers, complementing the existing telephone information line. 1.8. Ticketing information needs to be simplified and payment methods easier.
