Course Description
An Award of the University of Huddersfield
This award is delivered by the University of Huddersfield with three modules taught by Craven College. Educational administration is increasingly challenging; the growth of new technologies, competition between institutions, accountability and quality assurance. The financial complexity of organisations and the use of administrative staff as first line contacts means that a high level of skill and knowledge is required to succeed in these roles. The course provides those working in the administration of educational institutions such as colleges, schools and universities, with a qualification that will enable you to develop the academic and professional skills you need to succeed.
The Degree consists of 12 modules, nine will be delivered through a mixture of on-line learning and day schools and three through work-based research projects. Attendance at the University of Huddersfield is required six days per year.
