These programmes are ideal for beginners, career changers, or those returning to education who wish to build a strong foundational understanding before progressing to more advanced qualifications. Our Foundation Certificates emphasise essential concepts, methods, and terminology in each subject area. 

While not externally accredited, these awards are academically rigorous, developed in consultation with subject specialists, and intended to support further independent or formal study. Each Foundation Certificate involves 3-6 months of guided study, combining structured materials with self-directed learning and tutor support.
