    Access to Nursing and Midwifery

  • I have come back into education after an absence of 18 years and the past year has provided me with a firm academic foundation that i will build on as i move forward. Access did not only teach me new information it allowed me to learn skills that helped me study effectively and to ease myself into an academic environment that can be daunting after so long. The knowledge i have acquired on this course will be invaluable as I begin my midwifery degree in September.

    I completed my Access course with high praise from all my tutors and achieved all my credits at level three. My attendance was almost perfect and I was a positive and active member of my group. I am amazed at the skill employed by Access tutors, i was constantly amazed at their ability to teach such a diverse group of ages and abilities and i am grateful to have been part of Access at TVU.

Student quotes: Kerri
  • Kerri:

    "For people who want to go to university and are not coming direct from college, TVU is perfect. They treat everyone with equal respect.

    I was training as a nurse, after a mental health work placement I decided I wanted to work as a psychologist.

    TVU takes February starters which meant I didn't have to wait till September, and groups are smaller.

    Friendly and flexible staff make lectures enjoyable and understandable!

    Changing from nursing to psychology I was very nervous as to whether I had done the right thing. (I had been half way through nursing) but staff here were very supportive and encouraging. I made the right choice!"
