University Certificate in Concrete Technology

Progress your career development by gaining a nationally recognised qualification developed with the Concrete Society.

The distinctive nature of this programme is represented by the flexibility of its design and delivery.  Its construction and innovative modes of delivery recognise the diverse and dispersed nature of not only the industry itself, but the potential student body it will serve.  Due to the geographical spread of the industry,  manufacturing sites and offices are often remote and isolated. Technical and operational staff very often spend a significant proportion of their time working outdoors, can be transient (with seasonal working activities sometimes playing a part) and they may also find that they are suddenly re-located, in some cases abroad.  The provision offered within this programme of study, has had to evolve to meet the needs of such learners: taking advantage not only of traditional teaching and learning techniques, but utilising the most advanced learning technology for teaching, learning, supervision and assessment.
