Study Details: 1 Year Part time
Boost your continuing professional development with our Postgraduate Certificate in Widening Participation and Evaluation. This course will support your practice related to widening access and participation for students from underrepresented backgrounds.
You’ll explore the relationship between widening participation policy, theory and practice. You'll also understand the drivers for widening participation strategies and produce outputs that will enhance your practice. These will include:
critical analyses of existing approaches
a rationale and concept paper for your own initiative
an evaluative framework derived from the completion of Theory of Change documents
You can use these outputs to create a comprehensive business case at your higher or further education institution.
You'll need a 2:1 degree in any subject.
Alternatively, you'll need a minimum of two years' experience supporting widening participation strategic objectives within a higher or further education institution. You will be expected to evidence this experience through a CV and professional reference as part of your application.
We have designed this course to suit professionals working in higher or further education settings, both in the UK and internationally.
If you're working in another sector, you can still apply. However, you should be working within a professional setting where you can apply your knowledge, understanding and skills.
