Important information

Whilst we encourage you complete the full course, some modules contain training that is mandatory and will require you to engage with the materials in order to mark them as complete. This induction content has been designed with all students in mind; however, there are some sections that might not apply to you personally. Similarly, if you are a student studying at a partner institution, some university functions are provided entirely by your home institution. Please check with your provider if you are unsure.

Use this course as your launchpad to the people, skills, and tools you'll use throughout your degree. It also includes mandatory training for all students starting in higher education.

Course Pre-Enrolment Pages
