CertHE Business Skills for the Workplace

University of Wales Trinity Saint David

A broad overview of how organisations operate — exploring finance, human resource management and marketing — is the CertHE Business Skills for the Workplace. Full-time weekday and weekend study is listed across Birmingham, Cardiff, London and Swansea, so you can pick a campus that fits travel. A Certificate of Higher Education is a shorter Level 4 award and can be a step before further study. Multi-city delivery distinguishes this workplace skills certificate from London-only CertHE business pages. AF Education gives UK home students free help with the application and with Student Finance England. Choosing among Birmingham, Cardiff, London and Swansea lets you match campus travel to where you already live.
