Adult Courses (19+)

Access to Higher Education Diplomas are nationally recognised qualifications designed for adults who want to progress to university but may not have traditional Level 3 qualifications. They provide a structured, supportive route into higher education, combining academic study with the essential skills needed for degree-level learning. Access to HE courses are ideal if you’re returning to education, changing career, or aiming for university-level study.

Skills Bootcamps are flexible, employer-designed courses that help adults aged 19+ gain in-demand skills for a new role or career progression. Most require no prior experience—just good English and a willingness to learn—though some may have specific entry requirements listed in the course details. They offer a fast, practical route into growing industries, often with a guaranteed interview on completion.
