Our qualifications range from Entry Level to Level 6, ensuring that there are a variety of options whatever your previous experience. Take a look at the courses on offer below.
A Levels
A Levels last for two years and allow you to focus on the academic subjects that you enjoy the most. They are an academically demanding route which are exam focused. Students usually progress to higher education or may pursue employment or an Apprenticeship.
BTEC & Vocational
BTECs and other vocational diplomas usually last up to two years. They involve practical work, as assessed coursework and, in some instances, exams. They carry UCAS points, so you can progress to higher education if you wish to. Alternatively, on completion you can pursue employment or an Apprenticeship.
T Levels
Studied over two years T Levels have been designed in collaboration with employers and businesses to bring classroom learning and an extended industry placement together. T Levels are equivalent to studying three A Levels and offer a mixture of classroom learning and on-the-job experience.
Apprenticeships
Apprenticeships last between one and four years and are available in many sectors, offering hands-on experience, a qualification and a wage. During an Apprenticeship you spend the majority of your time in the workplace. Apprenticeships offer a range of progression opportunities starting at Level 2 and spanning through to Level 6.
University Level
We work in partnership with top universities to offer a range of undergraduate courses with flexible study options and an emphasis on employability. As a smaller higher education institution, we give students the chance to study in a lively university town with great student support and smaller class sizes than many universities. At the end of their degree, students’ degree certificates are awarded directly by their validating university.
Access to Higher Education
Our Access to Higher Education qualifications prepare students for degree-level study. These one-year courses, in a variety of disciplines, are designed for adult learners (aged 19+) who would like to study in Higher Education but don’t quite meet the formal entry requirements or for those who have been out of education for a while.
Blended Learning Professional Qualifications
We offer a number of qualifications accredited by professional bodies including the Chartered Institute of Marketing (CIM), Association of Accounting Technicians (AAT) and Chartered Management Institute (CMI). These courses are designed to provide key knowledge for career development and are recognised by employers allowing greater earning potential.
