Two new Diplomas of Higher Education, Software Developer and Cyber Security Technologist, are available for September 2023 starts at the University of Brighton. They are accompanied by Certificates of Higher Education for Business Analyst and Data Analyst.
The new Higher Technical Qualifications are built on the same occupational standards as Apprenticeships, which were all developed in collaboration with employers to identify the skills and behaviours expected of professionals in these roles.
This makes the qualifications suitable for people who know what they want to do as a career after graduation, but may also lead to further study.
The courses are all available full or part-time making them suitable for school-leavers, or people who have already started their careers. If studied full-time, the Diplomas of Higher Education (DipHE) last two years, and the Certificates of Higher Education last just one year.
HTQs are mostly classroom based, but at Brighton, students will learn practical skills in workshops, by working on project briefs, and through using facilities that simulate and replicate the equipment, software and scenarios found in the workplace.
Courses are reviewed and enhanced on an ongoing basis, making sure that content is relevant, up to date and exactly what employers are looking for.
