Course Choice

Please select the curriculum area you are interested in studying.

Adults
Adult courses have start dates throughout the year. They're ideal if you want to learn new skills, develop existing ones, change career, boost your confidence, gain qualifications or simply learn for fun. Use this option if you would like to apply for BTEC's, NVQ's, Certificates, Business and Professional Courses and short leisure courses.
Access to HE
Access to Higher Education (HE) courses are designed to help individuals who left school without formal qualifications or for those who have significant life experience outside of formal education and are looking to gain a formal qualification in order to progress onto a degree course at University.
Distance Learning
You will complete the course through an interactive online learning platform and will be assessed through a series of online assessments, with no formal exams.
Part-time degree course
If you want to study a degree or HNC/D, but cannot attend university on a full-time basis, studying part-time is a great way to balance further study with other commitments such as work. You will need to complete our Part-time HE Application Form.
