What can I study at the Yeovil College University Centre? You can study from a choice of nearly 50 Higher Education courses, all designed with you and local employers in mind. This means that the majority of our courses are vocational and relate to jobs, career progression and local industry. What qualifications can I get? Through hard work and commitment, you can gain one of a range of qualifications, including professional accreditations, such as Association of Accounting Technicians, Association of Chartered Certified Accountants or Chartered Institute of Marketing status, Higher National Diplomas, Foundation, Honours or Master’s degrees, teaching qualifications, or Diplomas at Level 5 or above. It all depends on what you want to achieve, so come to one of our open events to see how we can help you. What are Foundation degrees (FdAs/FdSCs) and Higher National Diplomas (HNDs)? As well as being standalone qualifications, Foundation degrees and HNDs are courses which represent the first two years of an Honours degree programme. Once you achieve your Foundation degree or HND, you can often apply for a further year of study to ‘top up’ your qualification to a full Honours degree.
