Computing for England

Higher National Certificate in Computing for England, awarded by Pearson, and regulated by the Office for Students.

The HNC Computing for England offers students a broad introduction to the subject area through studying a range of units. The course covers theoretical concepts and vocational skills that are required in the IT industry, and has been developed to equip learners with the specialist knowledge and skills to make them competitive and employable in the job market. This is a Level 4 qualification, which is broadly equivalent to the first year of a ‘traditional’ university degree.

This course is available on a full-time basis and is taught in-person at our Yeovil College campus.

The full-time course is studied over 1 academic year, and students are typically timetabled for two days per week.
