Whichever method you choose one of the admissions team will get back to you as soon as we can to arrange and book an initial assessment or if appropriate to enrol you directly onto the course of your choice.
2. Ask any questions you may have about the course
Find out more about the course content and if you will be able to attend. What sort of things will you be learning? Where, when and how often does the class take place? How much will it cost?
3. Check you meet the course entry requirements
Is it the right level course for you? If you want to join a qualification course you will need to complete an initial assessment to check that your maths, English, or subject knowledge are at the right level for you to succeed.
If no initial assessment is needed you can enrol straightaway.
Allocation of places: There is high demand for places on our courses. Please be aware that when we offer places, we will take into account your previous record of attendance and completion and whether you signed up for courses and did not attend.
