HEFC Staff and Student Awards
The HEFCC Consortium loves to recognise innovation and excellence. That’s why we’ve been rewarding those staff and students who’ve been nominated by their teachers or peers.

The HEFC (Higher Education Foundation Course) is a course for students who would like to go to university but who don't have the qualifications to do so. Typically, HEFC students have had a substantial break in their education and wish to return to learning for vocational or personal development. No previous qualifications are required although students are expected to have a minimum level of numeracy and literacy.
The course can also help those who already have a degree but have gaps in their academic profile which prevents them from going on to further study at postgraduate level.
