Professional development and short courses
Enhance your knowledge and skills through our Continuing Professional Development (CPD) short courses. These courses are an excellent way to support your career and professional development.
Our CPD short courses are available across a range of specialist areas. Some courses are accredited, which means that you can work towards a University qualification. Other courses are standalone programmes. These focus on specific learning outcomes or developing your skillset.
Our courses can range from multi-day to year-long courses. You can study at our campus locations in Preston, Burnley or online.
