UNISON members may want to consider taking advantage of an offer from the Open University which is available for the last time to start in March 2014. Deadline for registrations is 9 January 2014.
The Open University is dedicated to extending educational opportunities to people from all walks of life. If you haven’t studied for a long time and don’t have the qualifications traditionally required to enter higher education you may like to consider the OU’s Access to Success Route.
This eases people into university level study and increases confidence and study skills in just two steps:
Step 1 – Choose one of the three OU Access Modules
- Arts and languages Access module
- People, work and society Access module
- Science, technology and maths Access module
On successful completion you will gain an OU Access Module Certificate.
Step 2 – Choose a more in-depth Level 1 Module in a relevant subject
Choose 60 credits of OU Level 1 study which can be counted towards a nationally-recognised qualification, up to a full undergraduate degree.
To qualify, students must live in England, have a household income of under £25,000 and have little or no previous university study experience. If you think you meet this eligibility criteria you could start your studies for just £25 (normal cost £625)!
