Career Development and Coaching Studies

These courses require attendance at on-campus workshops (subject to any future restrictions required by the government in response to COVID). For the full-time version, you will attend two workshops per week on two different days; for the part-time versions, you will attend on two consecutive days for each blended learning module. This may mean that some part-time students may need to meet the costs of overnight accommodation on or near the campus.

In the event that attendance on a face to face basis is not possible due to COVID restrictions, the sessions would run online ‘live’ using Teams or other suitable platforms at the same time as the face to face session.
