WHAT ARE HTQs?
HOW DO HTQs WORK?
With an HTQ, students study while they have a job. They gain valuable workplace experience while increasing their career prospects. Students study in their own time for 10 hours each week with two hours of recorded or live lessons. It’s completely flexible.
WHY STUDY AN HTQ WITH ACTIVATE LEARNING?
Get full support and guidance from Activate Learning either face-to-face in one of our colleges or online. We understand how people learn best, and we know how to work with every individual to remove barriers to learning. Take a look at our Learning Philosophy that shows we understand how people learn. ​
​We are proud to support our learners with an award-winning education, with year-on-year increasing student success that exceeds the UK national average; and a student satisfaction rate that exceeds the national average.
HOW DOES AN HTQ COMPARE WITH OTHER QUALIFICATIONS?
HTQs sit between A levels or T Levels and degrees, and can be taught at a further education college, an independent training provider or a university. You can see where a HTQ sits in comparison with other qualifications by downloading this PDF comparison diagram.
NOT READY TO COMMIT TO A FULL HTQ?
If you like the idea of HTQs but you don’t want to commit to the full programme we offer Degree Level Modules.
These are ideal for continuing professional development, refreshing your knowledge, or simply exploring a personal interest. If you later decide to continue your studies, you may be able to use any completed modules as credit towards a full qualification.
