Learners on access to higher education programmes improve their skills in referencing their written work accurately and in interpreting data. Learners on vocational programmes increase their knowledge of occupationally relevant terminology. Learners on employability programmes develop a wide range of useful skills that increase their chances of gaining employment.“
