Professional Development
Accredited training
The Diploma in Career Education is offered to staff in learning organisations,
and Connexions staff, who would like to develop their own practice in
relation to CEIAG. This will ultimately improve the provision within
their organisations as assignments are linked to practice.
The diploma is delivered in partnership with Connexions services across
the East Midlands and Nottingham Trent University.
