Step Up to HE
Have you ever wondered what it’s like to study at university? Are you concerned that you may not have the right qualifications or skills to study in higher education? Do you want to obtain a degree but are unsure what direction to take or what subject area is best for you? The Step up to HE Course is designed specifically designed to enable you to move towards your goals.
This is a free short course that provides a ‘taste’ of university.
It's aimed at anyone over 18 years who is thinking about further study and may be unsure of where to start or what is involved. As attendance on the course is for 2 days a week (times 10.00 – 3.00) this course is particularly useful for individuals who may have been out of education for some time, are currently working and/or have a range of commitments.
The programme is designed to build individual confidence and develop current skills. Also learners are able to sample a variety of courses available and obtain individual guidance to inform decisions about future career goals and learning programmes. Many learners who complete the course progress onto a wide range of programmes at foundation or degree level. For example, Photography, History, Media and Sociology.
