Certificate of Proficiency

Try a subject you’re interested in by taking one or two courses without committing to a full programme.

Programme structure

A Certificate of Proficiency provides you with the opportunity to:

  • Supplement your current knowledge before proceeding to advanced study
  • Undertake a small number of courses in specific areas of interest without enrolling in a formal qualification. It is also an option if you want to study just one or two courses.

A Certificate of Proficiency is open to anyone who meets the required entry requirements.
