We work with industry partners in a few different ways, and we’re open to finding a way that works for you. Here are some of the benefits.
Co-design a business project to get access to the minds of a group of ambitious and diverse professionals who are solely focused on solving your business problem.
We’ll work with you to find a custom solution for your team on all or part of a programme. As learners or mentors, they’ll benefit from relevant skills and university-approved knowledge.
Transform the way you recruit for complex digital roles with exposure to a highly relevant pool of talent and tangible proof of what they’re capable of.
Here are some basic questions
and answers to help you get started.
Career accelerators deliver the technical skills needed to perform in real-world roles, the understanding necessary to translate those abilities into meaningful value, the human skills crucial for gaining and retaining jobs, and the reflective capabilities essential for ongoing growth.
Beyond subject knowledge, you'll also benefit from 1:1 sessions with your Career Coach. They’ll work with you to identify and develop the employability traits and personal skills needed to thrive at every stage of your career.
The tuition fee for this programme is £8,395, but you can pay as little as £350 a month with one of our flexible payment plans. Ask your Enrolment Advisor about your options.
The majority of learning requirements can be completed asynchronously, in your own time. While attendance is strongly recommended for live webinar sessions and masterclasses, recordings will be made available at the conclusion of each session.
Live classes run mid week and outside of standard working hours. However, there is a weekly class that is timezone-friendly for the UK and South East Asia.
The programme is delivered entirely online through a virtual learning environment which is accessible from your personal computer or smartphone. Your personal Success Manager will be available to offer support and guide you through your learning journey.
Applicants should have an acceptable undergraduate degree, and be able to demonstrate foundational quantitative technical skills, either through relevant educational or employment experience, or by passing a technical test. English language proficiency is a prerequisite. Those who meet the initial requirements must then complete an admissions interview to further demonstrate competency and aptitude, as well as attitudinal fit appropriate to the programme’s intensive nature.
These partners add industry experience to coursework development, share tech expertise and play a direct role in the portfolio project design. Through their insight into the ever-changing landscape in the digital economy, they ensure you develop skills aligned to workplace demand, offer exposure to employer networks and open up access to job opportunities.
