Truro and Penwith College is reviewing our Higher Levels courses, with the aim of making them more accessible to students who juggle multiple pressures on their time, often combining work, family and learning.

As an employer with valuable knowledge of the industry, we would welcome your thoughts on our proposed new model of delivery for the Foundation Degree in Exercise, Health and Fitness (validated by the University of Plymouth), which is designed to be flexible and better meet the needs of students as well as employers.

During this fully funded* event, you will have the opportunity to review and suggest improvements on the proposed new delivery, as well as sharing your experience of combining work and study, helping us to ensure that we are meeting the skills needs of the industry.
