How Can it Help Me?
Who We Work With
The Centre facilitates a range of talks and lectures aimed at involving the community at the College. Though these will all be on varied subjects, they offer the opportunity to get a feel of what university lectures might be like and how you can be inspired by the expansion of ideas and theories.
Apart from the relationship with the University of Worcester, HLC is proud to work closely with many other different organisations to increase the availability of university courses in Herefordshire, facilitating access to higher education, and raising the educational aspirations of young people and adults to achieve their full potential.
The Centre is also a good first point of contact for anyone with queries about higher education, such as: • • • • • • • • •
What course or subject area is right for me? How can I study higher education locally? How do I write a UCAS application and statement? What financial support is available? What are tariff points? How do I prepare for an interview? Where can I study my chosen subject? What is student life like? Where is the Hereford University Centre?
Students from all walks of life choose to study at the College’s Hereford Campus based at Folly Lane, which houses specialist facilities for over twenty different industry sectors and a Learning Resource Centre for a diverse range of students and career directions. For visitors to the Hereford University Centre, the campus provides the ideal environment to explore the prospect of higher education and experience what university-level study could be like.
As well as being an Associate College of the University of Worcester, the College works in partnership with Pearson for the validation of teacher training and Engineering. We also work with the British Dyslexia Association for our Diplomas at Level 5 and Level 7 in Teaching Learners with Dyslexia and Specific Learning Difficulties. The BA (Hons) in Artist Blacksmithing at the Holme Lacy Campus is run jointly with Hereford College of Arts, a programme validated by the University of Wales Trinity Saint David. As well as the university partnerships, many of our courses have long-running relationships with industry specific institutions. These are the leading experts in their subject and our courses are tailored to their professional standards:
Association of Accounting
Technicians Chartered Management Institution
The Chartered Institute of Personnel and Development
