Progression to University from Access
to HE Courses
This briefing session explains how the University’s FE/HE Consortium
co-ordinates and assists curriculum development between Consortium
colleges and the University’s schools for agreed Access Curriculum
Pathways, how access courses are accredited through open college
networks, the way that the National Open College Credit Framework
operates so that admissions tutors can more readily understand the
value of the credits that access students have achieved, and the
quality assurance arrangements which access courses are subject to in
Consortium colleges and by the University of Salford through our
affiliation and validation process. The University has established its
own network of accredited access courses with partner colleges and
this will be discussed. The recent QAA changes to the way access to
HE courses are to be delivered will be described. For further
information please contact Laura Mole, Enterprise and Development
(email: l.mole@salford.ac.uk).
