A career-first learning experience tailored to help you go further, faster.

Don't just learn to do the role, learn to be the most valuable member of the team. Gain the technical skills you need to do the role well, AND the human and commercial skills you need to compete both now and in the future.

Prove yourself in a real-world project

Apply your learning to a real-world scenario with a live business case. Work as part of a team to solve a current business challenge, and build a portfolio of evidence in the process.

Tailor your experience to your goals

Work with a dedicated Career Coach and Success Manager to proactively set your career goals and build the path that gets you where you need and want to go.

What is the role of the industry and employer partners?

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. Ask your Enrolment Advisor about our flexible payment plans.

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.
