PUBLIC SERVICES
If serving and protecting your community,
whether by maintaining a visible presence,
providing civil services or responding to
an emergency, is your idea of a challenging
but rewarding job, our Higher Technical and
Professional qualifications in Public Services
is an exciting career pathway.
Our HNC in Public Services will offer you an insight
and understanding into the broad range of public
service roles out there, with the opportunity
to specialise in one of four pathways: Civil
Protection, Crime and Criminal Justice, Public
Service Management or Blue Light Services.
Our HND in Public Services will build upon
what you learned in your HNC and provides
the qualities needed for employment in roles
that require personal responsibility and
decision making.
At this level you will be able to specialise by
committing to specific career paths and
progression routes to degree-level study.
You will first and foremost develop your
teamwork and leadership skills, as both will
be vital in your future career. You will also be
challenged academically, with all lectures
being delivered by ex-service personnel who
are also fully qualified, graduate teachers.
Once you complete your Public Services
qualification, you will have the knowledge,
skills and experience of the sector needed
to progress onto further study or training.
You will be ready for employment in roles
such as police officer, emergency call handler,
fire services officer, the armed forces, border
force and Civil Prosecution Service.
