The Simulated UCAT Day (SUD) 2-Part workshop conducted over a full day and a follow-up session.
If you are in Yrs. 10, 11, 12, or you may be older and considering sitting the UCAT in the future, then this
program is for you. The Simulated UCAT Workshop program is ideal and often a necessary step towards
effective and efficient preparation for the UCAT.
The workshop is primarily designed to cover fundamental techniques in navigating all five sections of the UCAT
test and also for participants to gain a better understanding of their own level of preparedness for the test. Over
the course of the years, the program has evolved into a more comprehensive and holistic exercise, which not
only achieves its primary goal, but it is also exposing students to a wealth of knowledge about all other aspects
of the journey into a medical degree. The latest update has seen the program grow into a 2-Day event as the
sheer amount of content covered was too great to fit into a 1-day program. g

Knex Stencils - Marking a career path
It's possible that you haven't given much thought to a routine task like driving, parking, and entering a shopping
center. How did we figure out which direction to go in the carpark? How do I remember where I parked my car?
How did I make it safely into the shops? Completing this daily task with ease is possible due to the ‘line
marking’ we follow, such as directional arrows, bright clear signage, bollards and pedestrian crossing that
create secure pathways. Here at Kenex Line Marking we make this possible.
Kenex Line Marking is a long-established company ‘Marking the Difference’ in our industry. We have our own
tailored progressional pathway that allows you to learn from some of the most skilled line markers in the
industry providing opportunities for growth. If you’re looking for career path with a difference, check out our
socials and website to learn more.

by entangling the present with the past and near future. The conversation will offer insight into O’Neil and
Knight’s practices which explore themes around the human condition and understandings of self. The artists
