University Centre Open Event

Thinking of taking your next step without the hassle of moving away, high living costs or oversized debt?

At our University Centre, you’ll find high-quality Higher Education courses that combine the best of both worlds: affordable degrees and real-world skills tailored for the job market.  

Come along and find out why you should study with us:

• Clearer career outcomes – Our HE curriculum blends academic theory with vocational practice so you leave with not just knowledge, but the skills employers actively seek. 

• Affordable and local – Stay at home, keep your part-time job or stay connected with family and still gain a degree-level qualification without relocating. 

• Support-first approach – We understand that everyone’s path is different. Whether you’re moving straight from school, returning to learning or switching career direction, we’ve got you covered.

Our HTQs offer a combination of hands-on experience and classroom instruction, leading to well-paid, stable, and long-term career opportunities and align with employer-designed standards, ensuring you develop the skills businesses need. This gives employers confidence that graduates possess the necessary knowledge, technical abilities, and professional behaviours required for specialist roles.

Each course is designed to move you forward: into employment, a higher level of study or a new career path.

Subjects include:

• Construction and the Built Environment

• Computing

• Sports
