David studied an Access to Higher education Diploma - Land-based Studies at Hartpury to enable a smooth transition into his degree-level studies.

David’s Hartpury Experience

“Hartpury has set me up for my career. If I hadn’t completed my work experience with Cheltenham Town Football Club, I wouldn’t be where I am now – Lead Analyst for their academy.

From the Access programme manager Nicola, my tutor, lecturers and support staff to the friendly staff in the coffee shop – everyone has a smile on their face and is happy to help. It’s a wonderful place to study."

Developing Industry Connections

“Access gave me an understanding of what’s required of a university student and ensured I had a smooth transition into my degree-level studies. Some of the content from my Access course come up in my first year at university, so I felt confident that I had a good foundation of knowledge.

Hartpury really looks after its students. From day one, I’ve been supported as an individual. This has enabled me to work towards a full BSc Sports Performance course, with a view to completing a Master’s degree to further develop my expertise – hopefully at Hartpury! There are plenty of career opportunities if you have the qualifications and experience – and that’s what I’m gaining.”
