To find detailed information about course dates, duration, and delivery methods, please visit our Short Courses page on our website. You will find a comprehensive overview of upcoming courses, including start dates and any relevant deadlines for registration.

Yes, you can gain academic credits from a short course, but this is subject to our Short Courses (Non-Credit and Credit-Bearing) Regulations. These regulations focus on quality assurance and academic standards to ensure that all courses meet the required criteria for credit-bearing status.

Please refer to the specific details outlined in these regulations to understand how credits are awarded and the implications for your academic journey. If you have any further questions, feel free to reach out to our Student Success Team for guidance.

The weekly time commitment for short courses varies depending on the specific course and its format. Detailed information about the expected duration and weekly study hours can be found in the 'Duration' section of each course on the Short Courses page on our website.

To apply for one of our short courses, please start by reviewing the key information available on our website. Each short course specification includes essential details such as the course name, description, content, entry requirements, duration, mode of delivery, academic level, credit status, and associated fees.

When you submit a form to book a place on a short course, this constitutes an offer to us to undertake that course; however, it does not form a binding contract. A contract will be established only when we send you a confirmation that you have secured a place on that short course.

We will confirm your place once you have completed the full booking form, met all applicable entry criteria, and we have accepted your application. At that point, you will need to pay the required fees and charges as outlined on our website. All payments are made in pound sterling (£) and are subject to our cancellation and refund terms.

Our short courses are thoughtfully designed to integrate seamlessly into your existing schedule, ensuring that you can balance your studies with other commitments. Throughout the course, you will engage in a variety of activities that enhance your learning experience and provide a well-rounded education.

These activities may include AI content, videos, case studies, and quizzes. This diverse approach not only helps reinforce the course content, but also fosters a dynamic learning environment where you can connect with your peers and instructors.

For more specific details about the activities included in your course, please contact our Student Success Team.

Interaction with fellow students varies based on the type of short course you choose.

Flexible Online courses are conducted entirely online without live components, which may limit opportunities for interaction. In contrast, In-Person courses include live elements, whether delivered on-site or remotely, allowing for more direct interaction with your peers. Blended courses combine online content with in-person sessions, facilitating both digital and face-to-face engagement. This mixed approach provides opportunities to collaborate and connect with other students, enhancing your learning experience.

By selecting the course format that best fits your preferences, you can optimise your interaction with fellow learners.

Under the Short Courses (Non-Credit and Credit-Bearing) Regulations, all participants who successfully complete a short course will receive a certificate of participation. This certificate serves as recognition of your engagement and achievement in the course.

For those enrolled in credit-bearing short courses, additional documentation is provided. Participants will receive transcripts, alongside their certificates, issued in accordance with our Academic Regulations. This ensures that students have formal documentation of their academic achievements.

Our commitment to educational standards and transparency means that certificates and transcripts are valuable tools for showcasing your accomplishments and enhancing your professional profile.

The certificate awarded will be a digital certificate. This certificate can be easily shared and showcased, enhancing your professional profile.

Certificates are issued within 2-weeks after the course completion date, allowing you to promptly update your credentials.

Unfortunately, we do not provide physical certificates for short courses. Instead, participants will receive a verified digital certificate upon successful completion of the course. This digital format allows for easy sharing on professional platforms.

Our decision to issue only digital certificates aligns with our commitment to sustainability and efficiency, ensuring that you can quickly and conveniently showcase your achievements without the need for physical copies.
