All programmes are designed to meet the requirements of Edexcel BTEC Higher Nationals awards. Committed to widening participation, the College will interview applicants and offer places to mature students on the basis of experience and commitment. Applicants at 18 should normally offer at least one GNVQ Advanced or an A level.
Teaching is student-centred.
You will work as part of a group as well as individually. There is a great emphasis on learning by doing. The knowledge and skills that you learn are focused on meeting the needs of employers, and so valuable knowledge is what is effective in the working environment. Overall assessment will be based on on a wide variety of methods including case studies, assignments, presentations, time constrained exercises and business and work-based projects from clients. You will contribute to team projects but you will also be individually assessed.
