Hi Anne,******************************** Please remove this footer before replying.
I am almost at the end of my course at Leeds Met, and can honestly say I have enjoyed the experience, even though I am particularly stressed at the moment!
I am based near Hull and travel by train to Leeds, one of my friends on the course travels from Lincoln. What ever you decide I may be able to offer some support with your studies as we share a link via Dr Guest who is OHP for us.
Good luck with your search.
Regards
Cheryl

Hello Anne
It is difficult to comment about courses other than my own as I don’t know their specific rules. However, the general principles will be the same. Think of academic courses a bit like going up an escalator in a three story building. Level 1,(also known as level 4) is the first floor and the equivalent of the first year of a university degree. Level 2 (also known as 5) is the second floor – second year of a degree. The third year is level 3 (also known as 6).
The diplomas of Warwick and Uni Glam are both excellent courses but they are delivered at diploma level which is level 2(AKA level 5) the academic level of the second year of a degree programme. The academic level does not relate to how good courses are just what “floor” in the educational escalator they are taught at. So the short answer is that it is unlikely that you will get exemptions from a course delivered at level 3(6). However, entry to level 3 courses usually requires previous study at level 2 so the diploma would be what would get you into the course; rather like A levels are the entry point to a degree studied straight from school at the age of 18. Don’t be disheartened as it does mean that you go straight to the third year of a degree programme. When I first started teaching at the RCN academic credit wasn’t given for having an RGN so those people had to do all three years of a degree programme.
Although we have had students from Lincolnshire registering on our programme (we have had students travel from Scotland, Ireland and Wales before now) I suspect that the nearest course to you for face to face teaching would be Leeds Met, give Becky a call. The alternative is D/L at either University of West of Scotland or Robert Gordon University. D/L doesn’t suit everyone – it requires a high level of self discipline but it is great option for those who have that.

Anne

Hello Anne******************************** Please remove this footer before replying.
Could you just clarify for me if this applies if you also studied at Warwick Diploma for the Diploma in OH, as I am planning to further my studies hopefully next year & will be devastated if nothing can be be accredited.
I am based in North Lincolnshire/South Humberside & would ideally need to look for something more local, so sadly London would be too far for me to travel. I have heard nothing but great things about your course & remembering you lecturing us at Warwick a few years ago.
Kind Regards

Hello Georgina
The diploma you have completed at Uni Glam is taught at second year degree level - level 2 – (known in some institutions as level5). All the SCPHN courses are currently taught at level 3 (AKA level 6) and therefore it is unlikely that you would be able to make an APL claim as the levels are different. However, on the plus side, you should find degree level OHN study easy and you will be at a distinct advantage. I have taught several students with the Warwick Diploma in OH and having completed that course puts them at a distinct advantage.
Not sure where in the country you are based. We are based near Waterloo and a number of underground stations if you would be interested in studying with us. If so please contact me off list on this email address.

Hi,******************************** Please remove this footer before replying.
I wonder if anyone could advise me the best route to take to obtain a OH degree. I have recently obtained my OH diploma at the university of Glamorgan and wonder if I can APL what I have already done and top up to go on and get a degree.
I have found out that the Robert Gordon university do offer a long distance learning degree but I cannot APL any of my dip. Is this the case for all university's offering the OH degree course?
Thanks in anticipation
Georgie
