AssessmentMost of our courses are taught in manageable modules and you’ll need to complete different assessments to pass each module.

Many assignments are designed to imitate real workplace situations and Foundation degree assessment is often linked to your workplace or a work placement. Each piece of your work is checked by us and you’ll receive detailed feedback on how well you are doing and how to improve.

Some modules contain exams, depending on the course. Full details are given in the course handbook you will be given on enrolment.

Tutor supportWe ensure you have lots of time with your tutors. You can meet with your tutor on a regular basis to discuss your learning goals and progress.

Your year group will meet for common topics such as study skills or careers talks and some classes join together occasionally, so you can meet different students and benefit from a wide range of experiences.

Money mattersAn important consideration when choosing where to study must be the quality of your course. However, we also understand you may be concerned about the costs involved with studying higher education.

We have dedicated advisors on hand to help you find out what funding is available and how you can receive it.

Most students will be entitled to apply for a student loan and our student services team can help you to complete the necessary forms.

£750 bursaries are available to eligible full-time students. To find out more simply contact, [email protected] or call 0300 45 600 48

Your pick… of qualif icationsWarwickshire College offers a diverse range of learning programmes, with many opportunities to fast-track or change career direction.

Our higher education qualifications are available to all students and are listed below.

Higher National Certificate (HNC) – usually a two-year part-time course, popular with employed students who attend college for one day or two evenings a week.

Higher National Diploma (HND) – usually a two-year full-time course, popular with school/college leavers who have completed a National Diploma, A-Levels or other equivalent qualifications.

Foundation degrees are vocational qualifications. Designed with the help of employers, they focus on technical/practical and academic skills.

Work-based learning is an essential part and the length of your course depends on the amount of work-based learning you undertake outside the college. Some courses can be studied over two years with college attendance just one day a week; others require full-time attendance with managed work placements.

As employers are involved in the design and review of courses, Foundation degree graduates are highly employable.

Diploma of Higher Education (DipHE) is equivalent to the first two years of an Honours degree and is ideal for someone who wishes to study initially in a college environment and then progress onto the final year of a degree at a university.

Honours degrees are usually three year full-time courses with the possibility of including a work placement ‘sandwich’ year.

Warwickshire College offers a range of Honours degrees in vocational subject areas, which you can find on pages 8-23.

Student StorySam Ashby and Claire BlackabyBSc (Hons) in Animal Welfare

Sam and Claire’s Story Sam and Claire both studied at Warwickshire College’s Moreton Morrell Centre for six years, taking a First Diploma, a National Certificate, a Foundation Degree and finally a BSc in Animal Care. Claire now works in a dog grooming parlour and Sam works in the Animal Centre at Moreton Morrell.

Sam says, It’s been good. The animal welfare unit is really high class – the tutors really know their stuff and are specialists in their field. I am working in the unit now, teaching the younger years and I am looking to go into specialist work with reptiles and amphibians. It has been good to be able to progress through different levels at the same college – the animals get to know you so it’s easier to work with them.

Angela ClarkeFoundation Degree in Administration and Business Support

Angela’s Story The Foundation degree helped Angela to hone her existing administration and business skills and to develop new ones. The course also challenged her to think more deeply and examine her existing working practises. She now works with Oxfordshire County Council as an Administrative Officer (Specialist) within their Educational Psychology Department. The course helped her build confidence as well as the knowledge, skills and competence needed to progress in her career.

Angela says, I had some very good tutors who were incredibly patient, supportive and enthusiastic in their teaching. The other students and I formed a solid friendship and the friendly, supportive atmosphere made the course extremely enjoyable.

Student StorySarah SteelHND Advanced Practice in Work with Children and Families

Sarah’s Story After A levels, Sarah intended to go to university but as the time drew near, she became unsure and took a gap year to clarify her thoughts. She decided her future lay in working with children and the course at Warwickshire College seemed ideal. Having completed her course, Sarah is topping up her HND to a BA (Hons) in Early Childhood Education. She intends to take either a social work masters degree to work with children and families or primary teaching PGCE.

Sarah says, The course was excellent. I was in a small, friendly, close-knit group so it was all very personal. Not only that but the fees were much less than university. I honestly believe that, in terms of knowledge, experience and expertise, I have come out with just as much as a traditional university would have given me. The tutors were always available so I never felt that I was struggling for a moment. I would certainly recommend the course to others.

Thomas FragiacomoHND in Electrical Engineering

Thomas’ Story Thomas studied for four years at the Rugby Centre. He completed a National Diploma in Engineering from 2005 to 2007 then continued with a Higher National Diploma in Engineering - Electronics from 2007 to 2009. Thomas was employed by the College as a part-time technician but now works at the large automotive and marine manufacturing company, Orscheln Europe.

Thomas says, it was wonderful. I had done an IT course and a few other things and thought it was time I got a proper qualification. It seemed worthwhile to do electrical engineering and because I was a bit older with added confidence, it made it a lot easier. The lecturers were great and really supportive throughout the course.

Lauren-Faye MillinghamFoundation Degree in Spa Management

Lauren’s Story Lauren-Faye had already completed her level 2 and 3 qualifications in beauty therapy before she came to Warwickshire College. She opted to study the Foundation degree in Spa Management which she passed with a distinction and also earned a ‘Tutor’s Prize’ award for her outstanding work on the course. Lauren-Faye then took an International Business Administration top-up at Cardiff. She now works as Assistant Manager with the prestigious spa chain, Dove Spa UK.

I had an amazing tutor and the course gives you an incredible grounding in a wide variety of areas. My company didn’t need to send me on extra training because I had already had all the training I needed on my course.
