What is expected of me?
You’ll be required to do the following:
- Attend lectures on a day release mode of study.
- Inquire at enrolment about government funding through our higher apprenticeships.
- Complete Assessments that are based on coursework issued throughout the 2nd year duration of the course.

What comes next?
Following successful completion of the HND, learners can progress to University to top up full degrees.
