Access to Higher Education
Access to Higher Education courses are designed for people who would like to study at University but who left school without the qualifications they need, such as A Levels. Courses are run in Further Education Colleges throughout the North East. It's never too late to think about University study!
OCN North East Region Access to HE courses are developed by practitioners to meet the needs of students in our region. There are a range of subject pathways that lead to the achievement of the QAA Access to HE Diploma. We also provide an extensive programme of support for tutors who deliver this innovative approach to preparing students for Higher Education.
If you are interested in running Access to Higher Education courses contact jennie.lawson@ocnner.org.uk.
OCN North East Region invites you to the Access to HE Forum 2010. The event is open to all and provides an opportunity to discuss the issues surrounding Access to HE in 2010.
