✔✔ To qualify for a 24+ Advanced Learning Loan you must: • be aged 24 and over at the start of your course • be a resident in the UK • be studying a course at level 3 or 4 (including QCF Certificates and Diplomas, Access to Higher Education) • have not previously had a loan to do the same course subject and level. ✔✔ You will only be able to apply for a loan to meet the upfront costs of your qualification, which will be paid directly to the College. ✔✔ The loans are not means tested or credit checked so if you meet the criteria you will be able to apply for a loan whether you are employed or unemployed.

Courses marked with the 24+ symbol

24+

Government funding for students aged 24+ at level 3 or 4 is provided through the 24+ Advanced Learning Loans.

Therefore, there are separate fees for these courses which can be higher than the fees quoted to those aged under 24. This is because the loan is for the full value of the training rather than a contribution to the costs.

If you are aged 24+ and would like to study a level 3 or 4 course, please see our website (www.cityplym.ac.uk) for up-to-date fee information.

“Taking on apprentices has been great for us. As a charity, taking on an apprentice is a cost-effective solution to developing the team. This way we can also support a young person into work and ultimately a career … it is something that I would like to continue to do going forward.”

“We’ve found that, by taking on an apprentice, you are able to mould them to suit the business and, in our experience, everyone that we have taken on has fitted really well into the team. You can ease them into the things that you would like them to do whilst giving them that vital on-the-job experience.”

In partnership with Plymouth University we can offer university-level modules from any of our Foundation Degrees.

These courses allow you to build higher-level skills and support career development, as well as supporting progression onto further universitylevel qualifications. They are an excellent way of trying an area of study before committing to a full qualification.

These awards are professionally focused, and designed to support business and employer needs. On completion you will be awarded a Certificate of Professional Development by Plymouth University.

Although you can’t build a full degree out of these qualifications, you can use them towards an appropriate Higher National Certificate or Foundation Degree, with a maximum of 120 credits allowed.
