Foundation Degree in Business Pathways Programme 


The Foundation Degree programme is designed to:

• Enhance Welsh educational standards within the Convergence area of Wales (West Wales and the Valleys)

• Enhance access to Higher Education for those in private sector employment

• The Foundation Degree  is a Higher Education qualification in its own right, but with progression opportunities to an Honours Degree


Employees who live/work in private or third sector organisations within the Convergence area of Wales (West Wales and the Valleys) can benefit from:

• Fully or partially funded courses - depending on eligibility

• Learn while you earn: up-skilling those already in private sector employment

• Pathway to individual and organisational progression/development

• Staff investment

• Sector-specific and generic training

• A Foundation Degree is a great way to achieve personal development requirements

This course is part of the Foundation Degree  programme and has been made available through the European Social Fund, through the Welsh Government.
