Abingdon CampusThe course runs for one day per week and across two semesters per year, from September to May. During this time, you will be taught within a range of teaching and learning environments that will include lectures, workshops and seminars. All staff delivering on the course have a minimum qualification level at grade 6 and substantial experience of working within a relevant business sector.
Students can expect to spend a further four additional days outside of their normal timetabled day in order to complete the requirements of a full time programme. The College will ensure you receive those dates prior to commencement of your programme.
You will be supported through group and individual tutorials and our HE upgrade sessions by your course tutor. Students also have access to Brookes Upgrade Service. Although the course is one day per week, it is classed as full-time and therefore there is a substantial amount of self-study required in order to be successful on this programme. You should prepare for between 15 – 21 hours of self-directed study each week on top of your normal attendance at college.
