Each course comprises six assessed modules and an Academic Writing Skills - Undergraduate (AWS-U) portfolio, designed to introduce students to the study requirements of a CLMS programme.

Enrolment Dates

Admissions and Progression

Entrance is open to applicants who are qualified to A-level standard or equivalent with a minimum of 3 years full time work experience in paid or voluntary roles. Students will need to be involved in paid or voluntary work for the duration of their studies. We also welcome applications from people who may have been away from formal education for some time, but who have relevant experience, either through your trade union or as a training practitioner or manager. Students who achieve an overall (average) result of 45.00% or above in the Certificate will be eligible to proceed directly on to the BSc Year 2 Programme.

Assessment

Each course is assessed by written assignments. For each of the six modules you will complete a piece of assessed work of 3,000-4,000 words, demonstrating study skills and professional development.
