Around 175,000 students study undergraduate and postgraduate courses at more than 280 colleges across England. In towns that do not have a university, the local college provides a university-type service. Where towns and cities do have a university, the college often provides higher education (HE) for local people. Colleges also provide HE for those who are unable to access university due to transport costs or family commitments. Several colleges have a national reputation for their specialist vocational HE. Some 70% of college HE students live within 25 miles of their campus, and more than 50% study part-time, mostly on specially designed courses.AoC represents and promotes college interests at national and local levels. We influence and help formulate new policies so that colleges can enhance their HE provision. We also represent colleges’ interests with key HE sector agencies. On-going activities include helping colleges to increase their enrolments, achieve degree-awarding powers, develop higher apprenticeships and improve the quality of course delivery and college scholarship and research.
