Pre-Access to HE

Pre-Access is a progression course which allows the learner to learn and develop skills which include essay writing, Harvard referencing, proof-reading, IT knowledge and research. It involves areas which include UCAS applications, personal statements and career progression.  This course fully prepares the learner for level 3 education and is the first step to possible university progression.

If you are a mature student who is returning to education after a period of time and are planning to progress onto the full Access to Higher Education course or any other further education courses, then Pre-Access is for you.

You will gain the necessary skills to further your studies including:

  • English language
  • Maths/statistics
  • ICT
  • Research skills
  • Time management and presentations

You will be assessed using a coursework portfolio of three units built, as the course progresses.
