A student at a college or university

At college or university, when you gain academic and/or vocational qualifications you will earn credit points that can go towards the learning you may need to do all through your life.

• learning that you can do in college or university, or at work, or in the community
• learning that will earn you academic and/or vocational qualifications that will help you in your career and in your everyday life

For example, it may be possible to transfer from an HND in Engineering to the second or third year of a Degree in Engineering or from one HEI course to another in the same institution or elsewhere. For more information contact your guidance tutor or course leader.
