Raising Aspirations

Continuing to study beyond Level 3 can open up new opportunities, although preconceptions and concerns can sometimes stop people from looking into Higher Education. Our presentations, workshops and tours can be tailored to help support learners who are not considering university to look at other options to allow them to progress. With HN Flex, HTQ, and Higher Apprenticeship options, learners can continue studying beyond Level 3 without committing to a full degree, while still increasing their skillsets and experiences.
