Professional & career-focused courses

Investing in yourself and your career by gaining qualifications and skills through part-time study is a proven way to boost your career and increase your earning potential. Courses in this section are aimed at Adults who are 19+ and looking to study at college on a part-time basis. These courses lead to an industry recognised professional qualification or accreditation. We understand that you are busy and that your time is precious so courses are designed to be flexible to fit around your work commitments and lifestyle. Many run on weekdays and evenings and have flexible start dates throughout the year. Many of these courses attract funding from the Skills Funding Agency and therefore require you to complete an online application form and you are likely to have an interview with a course tutor before you enrol.
