Modular Acceleration Programme (MAP)

Not ready to commit to studying for a full degree? Looking to upskill or retrain in a particular area? Want to tip your toe back into education? 

Exeter College is proud to be delivering the Modular Acceleration Programme. A chance for learners to build credits towards a full HTQ, while paying no tuition fees and accessing a flexible course to fit around your lifestyle. Delivery will be face-to-face and consist of a mixture of lectures, practical workshops and skills-lab sessions, depending on your chosen module. 

Choose a module from one of our Higher Technical Education courses to get you started. There are six modules to choose from, all starting in September 2024. Explore the buttons below to learn more about each module. If you are ready to apply, you can register your interest through the relevant module page and a member of our Adult Advice Team will be in touch. 

What are the benefits of studying in this way?

• free tuition fees, with nothing for the student to pay – tuition fees will be paid for by a grant given directly to the education provider. Read more about this. 
• the opportunity to complete a module of a HTQ free of charge and without committing to the full course 
• the ability to build credits towards a full HTQ  
• the opportunity to gain qualifications and skills to support a chosen career path or business

• are aged between 19 and 60
