Access to HE Diploma (Nursing, Midwifery and Allied Professions)

This qualification combines topics in health, sociological perspectives in healthcare and biology, to give you scope when choosing a degree to suit your career choice.

The curriculum will give you a core understanding of essential topics which will help you to build a good foundation of knowledge for your degree.

You will be assessed for each unit through a variety of methods, which will develop the important skills and abilities that you will use on your degree course. This includes academic essay writing, research skills, analysis of data and presentation skills.

To enrol on the course you must have already achieved 4 GCSEs, including English and Maths at a minimum of grade 4/C. Unfortunately, we do not accept Functional Skills as an equivalent.
Applicants must be age 19 as of the 31st August of the year of study.

The cost of adult courses and the availability of course funding is dependent upon your previous qualifications and personal circumstances. Please contact admissions@oldham.ac.uk for individual guidance.

This course is delivered with a blended learning approach. The majority of the course is delivered in the classroom, and some will be delivered using an online platform. You will be required to attend college 2 days per week, with the rest of your studies completed either as directed study with your tutor or through independent work.
