Pre-Access

Some learners require additional support and preparation before they undertake their Access course. Studying at Level 3 can be challenging for adult learners, particularly if they have been out of education for some time. We have created a range of Pre-Access qualifications at Level 2 that have been designed to get your learners ready for Level 3 learning.

 

We have embedded study skills into the assessment strategy for these Skills for Further Study qualifications to help learners prepare for the challenges of Level 3 study, in addition to developing their subject knowledge.

 

The Preparation for Study Pathway from the Level 2 Certificate in Preparation for Work and Study qualification has been developed to support learners who are looking to take an Access to Higher Education Diploma but who may lack the appropriate study skills, or subject specific knowledge required.
