Course summary
The Certificate in Higher Education (Cert HE) in Criminology and Criminal Justice is a new type of qualification available to students wishing to start a Higher Education Criminology and Criminal Justice qualification. The course is validated by Lancaster University.
You will be able to complete this qualification in just one year of full-time study which makes it ideal if you are looking to start a new career sooner.

It will equip you with the essential skills and attributes for a career as an ethical, professional practitioner in the justice sector.
This course should appeal to you if you need to fit studying around other commitments or if you are looking to take your first step into Higher Education after a gap of study.
