Pass Learn: The UK’s Number 1 Service for Qualifications

Whether it is a university place, a better job or a qualification you never got round to finishing, Pass Learn provides the online courses, exam booking and expert support to help UK adults close the gap between where they are and where they want to be.

The Route to University -Without A Levels

Thousands of adults enrol in degrees each year using the Access to Higher Education Diploma as their entry route. This Level 3 qualification is purpose-built for adults who did not follow the traditional A Level path and want to access higher education. Studied online and regulated by the Quality Assurance Agency for Higher Education, it is accepted by universities across the UK for entry into programmes including nursing, health, teaching, midwifery, psychology and youth work.

UCAS points are awarded based on your grades -see what yours could be worth using the UCAS Tariff calculator. For learners who want to take the A Level route instead, online A Level courses and private candidate exam support are also available.

The Case for Functional Skills

Many learners are surprised to learn that GCSEs are not the only route to a recognised Maths or English qualification. Functional Skills Level 2 in Maths and English are accepted by most employers, universities and training providers as equivalent to a GCSE grade 4 -and they can be completed online from home without waiting for the main exam season.

Pass Learn offers both Level 1 and Level 2 in both subjects, making it easy to start from the right point and progress to a recognised qualification quickly. For learners who need the GCSE grade itself, online GCSE courses with exam booking support are available too.
