We’ll help you to build your knowledge of coaching, human and sports science, the wider sports industry and study skills, giving you the tools to succeed as you progress. You’ll learn from industry experts who know what it takes to manage behind the scenes infrastructure and support elite athletes.

As one of the UK’s most successful educational institutions for sport, our unique environment gives you access to our world-class facilities, which include our performance and science laboratories, gyms, rehabilitation suites and sports pitches. You’ll also have full access to our 24-hour University Learning Centre.

Qualifications are offered flexibly to suit your existing commitments and, depending on your situation, you could get your tuition fees paid in full; for example, if you’re aged 19-23 and haven’t already studied A-level, diploma or equivalent qualifications. If you’re over 19 and you've already studied a college course, you may also be eligible to apply for an Advanced Learner Loan to cover your fees. These loans may not require repayment if you then continue onto, and complete, a degree.

On successful completion of the diploma, many of our students progress onto study undergraduate degrees at Hartpury, with options to advance even further through a postgraduate qualification. 97% of Hartpury University graduates are in employment, further study or other purposeful activity (Graduate Outcomes, 2024).
