Gather Closely. . .



Huddersfield University heads a consortium of providers in the north of England, dealing in Professionalism and Education. Their chief stock in trade in this regard is a range of teaching qualifications such as the PCET(PGCE/Cert Ed) as a first step into teaching and learning in the post-16 arena, then moving upwards onto the BA in Education and then the MA in Professional Development.

I have studied with Huddersfield University since 2007, and now teach there as well. I can honestly say that the place is a genuine institute of HE, and quite unlike many of the pretenders based in the locality that are outside of the Consortium, and who will still offer you that vital PTTLS, PCET, FD, etc. You want a HE qualification? Then don't you think you should be in a HE environment? Better infrastructure, equipment, and resources, to name three. This is a no-brainer! Who would not want new buildings, working IT equipment, a library where you will not get assaulted, and decent lifts?

Do you understand really what it means to do a HE course in FE? Think to yourself "What I am doing this for? What changes do I expect in my life? How will I meet and collaborate with others like me?" Are you going to achieve your goals and exceed your expectations by staying put at your local college?? Who knows? You do!
