Higher education is delivered in the majority of further education institutions, but there is no single model of delivery

Aspects such as volume of provision, range of provision and experience of provision have a significant impact.


Volume


The volume of provision will range from institutions with just one or two courses to institutions with a wide range of undergraduate and postgraduate programmes

Range


The range of provision will be from HND/Foundation degree through to Masters level courses

Experience


Some institutions will have many years’ experience of higher education provision: others will have little or no experience
