Shipley College – Enhancing Access to HE through hybrid learning
Shipley College has been an Ascentis customer since 2000, working with us to support high-quality delivery across their Access to HE provision. Through our Spriing platform, we provide a flexible hybrid learning environment designed to enhance engagement, accessibility, and learner success—particularly for students balancing study with work and family commitments.
“Ascentis’ new hybrid platform for our Access to HE Diplomas has had a really positive impact on how our learners engage with their programmes at Shipley College. The flexibility of hybrid access allows learners to balance their studies more effectively around work and childcare commitments, without feeling disconnected from their learning.
The Spriing platform provides interactive resources that support engagement both in and out of the classroom, helping learners stay on track and feel supported. For staff, the ability to track class progress and learner engagement easily makes delivery and monitoring far more straightforward and efficient, in addition to the excellent support we receive from Ascentis and our Account Manager.
Overall, the hybrid approach has supported a more inclusive and flexible learning experience for both learners and staff.”
