Overview

Whether you want to improve your career prospects, or take a course for your own personal development and enjoyment, we have a course to suit you. We will offer two NEW Diploma courses in September '17: Diploma in Management (mainly online) and Diploma in Political Science and Sociology (blended learning). The Diploma in History will also return to the schedule in September '17.

The Diploma courses are delivered part-time over two years. Course delivery ranges from weekly evening lectures to fully online learning. The academic year is divided into two semesters, one beginning in early September and the other in early January. Each semester consists of twelve teaching weeks, a study week and an examination period. Students are required to participate in classes (online and face-to-face) on a regular basis. Additional time is required for home study such as reading, research, completing assessments and preparation for exams.
