Access to Higher Education Diploma
Details
The Access to Higher Education Diploma provides the level 3 entry requirements to go to university and is aimed at mature learners who do not have traditional or the necessary qualifications to progress to university.
Many Access to HE students left school with few, if any, formal qualifications, yet possess the potential and ability to study for a degree or for a professional qualification. Many have been out of education for some years and need to gain the relevant entry qualification to pursue their goals through higher education.
An Access to HE Diploma (Health Science Professions) leads to a wide range of degree programmes in both the health and social sector. Once qualified there are opportunities to branch out into a variety of careers.
Our fully online course is based on 12 months' study and offers flexibility to allow learners to work and achieve (at their own) pace whilst taking into account work and family commitments.
The course is fully accredited and accepted for entry to UK universities
You can start our course at any time of the year and complete it at your own pace
