The CertHE is the first level of a degree. It has been designed to provide a foundation for progress to the second and third years of study.

The minimum time in which this course can be completed is one year full time (spread over two conventional academic years); the maximum allowed time for completion is three years full time. The course content is firmly situated within the ongoing mission of the college, which continues to be directed towards adult students from working class and other backgrounds traditionally under-represented in higher education who have not previously benefited from formal education at undergraduate level.
