The Access to Higher Education Diploma in Business is a qualification that prepares people without traditional qualifications, for Higher Education study on a Business related course. The Access to Higher Education Diploma: Business course is primarily aimed at mature students (18+). The course provides a direct route into Higher Education, with successful students guaranteed a place on the Foundation Degree in Business, Leadership and Management at The University Centre Calderdale College, although some may choose a different course of study at a university. The course will seek to develop academic skills and business knowledge in order to provide a strong foundation to advance to successful higher-level study.
Applicants must be 18 years or over and must have GCSE English at grade C or grade 4 or above or a Level 2 Literacy before the start of the course. It would also be beneficial to have GCSE Maths at grade C or grade 4 or above or a relevant Level 2 qualification but you can undertake GCSE / Full Level 2 Maths alongside the access course.
Methods of assessment can include time constrained exams, written assignments, presentations, production of academic posters or leaflets, displays, reflective reports, essays and projects.
