Who can do these courses?

Our courses are open to everyone and you do not usually need previous qualifications to enrol. Many of our students have not studied or been on a course for a long time. People join in order to gain or extend their qualifications, expand their interests, gain confidence in learning and improve their employment prospects as well as to enjoy learning for learning's sake.

Previous HE Qualifications

If you already hold a Higher Education qualification such as an HND or similar, or have gained credits on a degree but not completed the course, you may be eligible to fast track into level 5 or 6 of the Combined Studies degree. Come and see us with any relevant paperwork, certificates or transcripts to discuss what’s possible.

When and where do the courses take place? Most courses are evening classes and take place in Bangor itself. There are variations though with some Saturday Schools, weekend schools, summer schools and daytime classes. Depending on numbers and topic, some modules can take place in the workplace or the community - just check out the time and venue next to each module in the prospectus. If you would like us to run a module or course in your area, please contact us and we can explore the possibilities.

How do I join a course?

To register your interest in a particular course or for an informal chat about what is possible: Call us on 01248 382118 or email: ll@bangor.ac.uk

Courses begin in late September but if you miss your chance now, there is an opportunity to join again in late January.

How long are the courses?

Is there a cost? What if I don't complete?

It depends what you are looking for. We have everything from short 4 day accredited courses to full degrees that can take from 4-6 years to complete. We aim to be as flexible as possible to suit your needs as a learner, these needs are open to change as you progress, so the important thing is to take the first step and start!

Always! Don't let this put you off – there are a range of schemes to assist you with the financial costs of studying, including Lifelong Learning's discretionary bursary scheme. Further details are available at the back of this booklet. If you don't complete the course* or if you withdraw**, it is likely that you will need to cover the cost of the course itself (*all course assignments attempted and submitted; **onus on student to formally withdraw).

Pwy all gwneud y cyrsiau?

Mae’r cyrsiau yn agored i bawb ac fel arfer nid oes angen cymwysterau blaenorol arnoch i gofrestru. Mae nifer helaeth o’n myfyrwyr heb astudio ar lefel uwch o’r blaen neu heb fod ar gwrs ers peth amser. Mae pobol yn ymuno er mwyn ennill neu ymestyn eu cymwysterau, ehangu eu diddordebau, ennill hyder wrth astudio a gwella eu rhagolygon cyflogaeth yn ogystal â dysgu am fwynhad.

Pryd a lle mae’r cyrsiau yn digwydd? Mae’r rhan fwyaf o gyrsiau yn ddosbarthiadau nos ac yn cael eu cynnal ym Mangor. Mae yna amrywiadau er hynny gyda rhai Ysgolion Undydd, Ysgolion penwythnos. Ysgolion Haf a dosbarthiadau dydd. Sieciwch yr amser a’r lleoliad nesa at bob un disgrifiad modiwl yn y prosbectws. Yn ddibynnol ar niferoedd a phwnc gall rhai modiwlau cymryd lle yn eich gweithle neu’ch cymuned. Os hoffech i ni gynnal cyrsiau yn eich gweithle neu gymuned, cysylltwch a gallwn archwilio’r posibiliadau.

Sut gallaf ymuno a chwrs?

I gofnodi’ch diddordeb mewn cwrs penodol neu am sgwrs anffurfiol am be sy’n bosib, ffoniwch 01248 382118 / 382475 neu e-bostiwch: dgo@bangor.ac.uk Bydd y cyrsiau yn cychwyn hwyr ym mis Medi ond os gollwch gyfle rŵan, mae yna gyfle i ymuno eto ym mis Ionawr 2016.

Cymwysterau AU cynt

Beth yw hyd y cyrsiau?

Oes yna cost? Beth os na allaf cwblhau?

Os oes gennych gymhwyster AU yn barod megis HND neu debyg, neu os ydych wedi ennill credydau ar radd ond heb ei orffen, mae’n bosib i chi symud ymlaen ar y radd BA Astudiaethau Cyfunol yn gynt. Dewch i’n gweld a dewch a’r gwaith papur priodol, tystysgrifau neu drawsgrifiad a chawn drafod y posibiliadau.

Mae’n dibynnu ar eich anghenion a diddordebau. Mae gan yr Ysgol bopeth o gwrs byr 4 diwrnod wedi ei achredu i radd gyflawn gall cymryd rhwng 4 a 6 mlwyddyn i gwblhau. Anelwn at fod mor hyblyg â phosib i gyd-fynd a’ch anghenion dysgu, felly'r peth pwysig yw cymryd y cam cyntaf a chychwyn!

Bob tro! Peidiwch â gadael cost i fod yn rhwystr - mae yna amrywiaeth o gymorth ar gael at gostau astudio - gan gynnwys bwrsariaethau Dysgu Gydol Oes. Gweler manylion pellach ar ddiwedd y llyfryn hwn. Os na cwblhewch y cwrs*, neu os ydych yn tynnu nôl**, mae’n debyg bydd rhaid i chi dalu costau’r cwrs hyd at y pwynt gadael. (* ymgeisio pob aseiniad a’u cyflwyno, **mae’r pwysau ar y myfyriwr i dynnu nôl yn swyddogol).

Are there assessments?

Most of our courses are accredited. This means that to successfully complete the course and be awarded Higher Education credits you will be required to undertake and pass some type of formal assessment. This could range from a short in-class test, coursework/portfolio or short presentation. Please do not let the assessment put you off attending. There is plenty of encouragement through tutor support, the study skills centre, the Learning to Learn module and friendly, supportive staff. Any non-accredited courses are listed under the Open Studies section. These are usually run locally in community settings and reflect local interest, others are run as taster courses prior to students potentially signing up for accredited modules.

Accreditation of Prior Experiential Learning (APEL) APEL is a process through which learning achieved outside education or training is assessed, and as appropriate, recognised for academic purposes. Experiential learning is learning from experience. Often the skills, knowledge and competences gained through this type of learning are equal to those gained by students following traditional courses. Learners are supported to make the claim through identifying appropriate learning at the right level, providing evidence and relating this to standard academic requirements. This is particularly relevant for those in work, although they may have progressed through their careers, may not have acquired formal qualifications at higher levels.

What opportunities are there once I have completed a course? The short courses are available in a variety of subjects and can be directly relevant to specific aspects of your work and interest. They also have clear progression routes to further study such as Higher Education Certificates, Diplomas and full BA / MA degree status should you wish. Our students use their qualifications for a variety of purposes, including to gain employment or to improve their employed profile. Lifelong Learning undertakes employer engagement in different sectors and works in partnership with others who co-deliver the learning, for example with CAIS and Community Development Cymru. Working with employers, we aim to keep our courses relevant to current working practices as well as preparation for future work changes.

What are you waiting for? Make the change with us?

Oes yna asesiadau?

Pa gyfleoedd sydd ar gael unwaith i mi gwblhau cwrs?

APEL

Mae’r rhan fwyaf o’n cyrsiau wedi eu hachredu . Felly i lwyddo ac i ennill credydau Addysg uwch, mae’n anhepgor i chi cyflawni a phasio rhyw fath o asesiad ffurfiol. Gall hyn fod yn brawf byr yn y dosbarth, gwaith cwrs neu bortffolio neu gyflwyniad byr. Peidiwch â gadael i’r asesiad eich cadw rhag astudio. Mae yna ddigonedd o anogaeth, cefnogaeth tiwtor, y Ganolfan Sgiliau Astudio a’r modiwl Dysgu Astudio a staff cefnogol a chyfeillgar i gynnig help llaw. Mae yna nifer bychan o fodiwlau a chyrsiau heb eu hachredu nad sy'n cael eu hasesu, gwelwch y rhain o dan Astudiaethau Agored. Yn arferol, cynhelir y rhain yn lleol mewn cymunedau ac maent yn adlewyrchu diddordebau lleol. Mae eraill yn gyrsiau blasu ar gyfer myfyrwyr sy’n ystyried gwneud mwy a chofrestri ar fodiwlau wedi eu hachredu.

Mae Achredu Dysgu Profiadol Blaenorol yn eich galluogi i ennill credydau am gyfleoedd dysgu yr ymgymerwyd â hwy yn y gorffennol, a wnaeth, neu efallai na wnaeth, arwain at gymhwyster addysgol. Cyn belled â bod y dysgu a'r profiad yma'n berthnasol i'r rhaglen y mae arnoch chi eisiau ei dilyn, ac y gellir ei asesu, yna efallai y bydd yn bosibl derbyn credyd amdano.

Mae’r cyrsiau byr ar gael mewn nifer o bynciau a gall fod yn berthnasol i’ch gwaith a’ch diddordebau. Mae ganddynt hefyd, lwybrau cynnydd eglur i astudio pellach megis tystysgrifau, diplomau addysg uwch a/neu raddau B.A. a M.A.

Byddwn yn eich cefnogi i wneud cais a chreu portffolio ffeil y byddwch yn cadw ynddi'r holl fanylion a thystiolaeth angenrheidiol er mwyn i'ch dysgu cael ei asesu ar gyfer cydnabyddiaeth academaidd ar y lefel cywir. Mae APEL yn arbennig o berthnasol i rheini sydd yn y gwaith (cyflogedig neu wirfoddol) sydd heb ennill cymwysterau at lefelau uwch.

Mae Dysgu Gydol Oes yn cysylltu â thrafod gyda chyflogwyr mewn sectorau gwahanol ac yn gweithio mewn partneriaeth gydag eraill i gyd-ddarparu dysgu, er enghraifft gyda CAIS a Datblygu Cymunedol Cymru. Trwy weithio gyda chyflogwyr rydym yn anelu at gadw’r cyrsiau yn berthnasol i ymarfer gweithio cyfredol yn ogystal â pharatoi at newidiadau gwaith yn y dyfodol.

Mae myfyrwyr Dysgu Gydol Oes yn defnyddio eu cymwysterau at amryw o bethau, gan gynnwys ennill dyrchafiad neu i wella ar eu proffil cyflogaeth.

UNDERGRADUATE DEGREES

First Degrees BA (HONS)

A student on a part-time degree will do the same amount of studying as a full time student, but spread over a longer period of time. There are three levels of study, each worth 120 credits and equivalent to first, second or third year study at degree level. At each stage students may exit with Higher Education qualifications. Part-time degrees have a modular structure, which means you can work at your own pace. Based on your degree choice, generally 60 to 80 credits are studied over the academic year. Most students can expect to complete a degree in 5 years. You do not need any particular qualifications. Professional experience and skills developed at work or in the home will be taken into account when deciding whether to offer you a place. In general we would expect to offer a place to anyone whom we feel would benefit from studying a degree. We generally offer applicants an informal interview, which will give you the opportunity to find out more about the degree programme.

BA (HONS) Combined Studies The Combined Studies degree is a unique and broad ranging degree programme but with opportunities to specialise via subject pathways. A minimum of foundation modules in each year ensure all degree students have a common platform from which to progress their learning. At level 4 (year 1) this is Learning to Learn and at level 5 it is Research Methods, level 6 is the final dissertation or work-based project. Optional modules then enable you to create your chosen pathway, either focusing on psycho-social, social & community, humanities or leadership and management modules or you can retain a broad mix. This pattern continues into levels 5 and 6, with distinct pathways or a broad approach as you choose. You will be allocated a personal tutor who will advise and support you in your choices as you design your individualised programme of study.

BA (HONS) Fine Art The BA (Hons) Fine Art degree engages with a very broad range of creative interests on the basis that professional practitioners today benefit from expertise in a range of media. The degree is practice based and normally takes six years of part time study to complete with exit awards at each level. For admission, you may be called on to attend a brief informal interview bringing with you a portfolio of recent work. Normally students admitted to the course have completed our Preparation course or equivalent.

The course will provide a very basic knowledge of the structure and vocabulary of the language. Beginners Plus: You may have studied the language at school some years ago or attended a beginners’ course. You have a very limited vocabulary and some understanding of basic structures. The course will introduce new tenses and help you to communicate in everyday social and work situations Intermediate Plus: You have a reasonable foundation in the language at school level, possibly to 'O'/GCSE level or equivalent. You can deal with most common 'survival' situations conďŹ dently. You now want to start moving beyond merely practicing simple language during your holiday or work trip abroad, learning to cope in non-routine situations and contributing to conversations on topics of general interest. Advanced Plus: You have acquired a good vocabulary and a good understanding of grammatical rules. Your speaking and listening skills allow you to be relatively confident in most social or working settings. You can understand a wide range of demanding and long texts. You now want to express yourself fluently and spontaneously without much obvious searching for expressions, and use the language flexibly and effectively for social, academic and professional purposes.

astudio am 25% o leiaf o’r cyfnod amser llawn cyfatebol am bob blwyddyn astudio, gan dreulio dim mwy na phedair gwaith yr amser y byddai’n cymryd i chi gwblhau’r cwrs petaech yn astudio’n amser llawn (hyd at derfyn o 16 o flynyddoedd). Nid yw’r Benthyciad Ffioedd Dysgu’n seiliedig ar incwm y cartref. Mae’r swm o Fenthyciad Ffioedd Dysgu y gallwch ei hawlio’n dibynnu ar gost y ffioedd a godir gan eich prifysgol neu goleg. Os ydych yn astudio ar ddwyster cwrs o 50% neu fwy, gallwch ymgeisio hefyd am Grant Cwrs. Yn ddibynnol ar incwm eich cartref gallech hawlio hyd at £1,155. Nid oes rhaid i chi dalu hyn yn ôl. Gallwch ymgeisio hyd at naw mis wedi i’ch cwrs gychwyn. Byddwch yn gorfod cychwyn ad-dalu’ch benthyciad ym mis Ebrill bedair blynedd wedi i chi gychwyn eich cwrs neu’r mis Ebrill wedi i chi adael eich cwrs – pa un bynnag ddaw gyntaf. Serch hynny, ni fyddwch yn cychwyn ad-dalu nes i chi ennill cyflog mwy na £21,000 y flwyddyn. Mae help ychwanegol hefyd ar gael i fyfyrwyr gydag anabledd, yn cynnwys cyflwr iechyd meddwl neu anhawster dysgu penodol, neu fyfyrwyr gyda phlant neu oedolyn dibynnol.

To qualify for a Tuition Fee Loan you must be studying at least 25% of the full-time equivalent for each year of your study, taking no more than four times the time (up to a maximum of 16 years) it would take to complete the course if you were studying full time. The Tuition Fee Loan isn’t based on household income. The amount you can get depends on the cost of the fees charged by your university or college If you’re studying at a course intensity of at least 50% you can apply for a Course Grant. Depending on your household income you could get up to £1,155. This doesn’t have to be paid back You can apply up to nine months after the start of your course. You’ll be due to start repaying your loan in the April four years after the start of your course or the April after you leave your course – whichever comes first. However, you’ll only start making repayments if your income is over £21,000 a year. There’s also extra help for students with a disability, including a mental-health condition or specific learning difficulty, or students with children or adult dependants.
