Digital Technologies for England (Data Analytics) (HTQ)

This is an exciting programme, developed with employers and accredited by the British Computing Society (BCS). While studying this course, you will have BCS student membership and on achievement of the qualification you will gain BCS Associate Membership.

You will be taught the course in a modular / block delivery mode so that you can immerse yourself in two areas of learning every 7 weeks, gaining knowledge and practical skills at an advanced pace.

The Level 4 units lay the foundation of learning by providing a broad introduction to digital technologies and to a range of digital technology specialist functions. This develops and strengthens core digital technology skills, while preparing you for academic progression onto Level 5.

During Level 5 you will specialise in data management and analysis. You will develop and apply your own ideas to your studies, dealing with uncertainty and complexity, explore solutions, demonstrate critical evaluation and use both theory and practice in a wide range of digital technology situations. Additionally, you will have the opportunity to gain industry experience through a placement which forms part of your studies. This experience will allow you to work in a technical environment and build on your network of industry contacts.

This qualification is recognised by University Centre Peterborough as meeting admission requirements to our relevant Computer Science degree pathway onto Level 6, which will allow you to continue your studies with us and complete a full degree.
