What you could study next
This Diploma is designed to take you into higher education. Most learners go on to apply for a Bachelor of Science (BSc) in Nursing, which leads to registration with the Nursing and Midwifery Council (NMC). Some choose a Foundation Degree in Health and Social Care as a shorter first step. If your interests develop during the course, related degrees in midwifery, paramedic science, or health sciences are also open to Access to HE graduates.
