College Launches New University-level Course Guide

City College Plymouth’s new university-level course guide for 2015/16, showcasing all of their Foundation Degrees and Higher National Certificate courses, is now available.

Foundation Degrees are two year, full-time, degree-level courses which are the equivalent to studying for the first two years of an Honours Degree at university. They can be converted to an honours degree by completing a final year at university. They are designed in collaboration with employers and offer students the opportunity to combine academic study with the skills and attributes needed in the workplace.

The guide also includes information on the range of part-time Foundation Degrees and Higher National Certificates the College offers, making further study more accessible to those who want to remain in employment.

The College’s guide has been designed with the input from a number of focus groups - to ensure that the College is providing information that prospective students really want.

Sam Smith, Digital Marketing Officer at the College, said: “People looking to enrol on a university-level course are savvier than ever - they want to know exactly what value they are getting from a course, or a college or university, and demand to be better informed about what they can expect.”

The guide has a full page of information on each course, which includes a section on progression routes and the all-important job prospects a student can expect after completion.

Sam continued: “We also understand that deciding to take your studies further is a difficult decision at the moment, so we wanted to make sure that our guide was as clear and straight forward as possible.”

To find out more, the College is holding an Open Day on Saturday 7 February between 10.00am and 1.00pm at its Kings Road site in Devonport. For further information or a free copy of the guide please contact the College on 01752 305300 or visit our publications page.
