Supervision Plus - optional support for Bellerbys students at university

We understand that settling into a new life at university after graduating from Bellerbys can be difficult for some students.  For this reason, we are now offering a new, optional academic counselling service called Supervision Plus to help those students adjust in their first terms at university.

Students graduating from the Diploma in Business and Management to a British university can sign up for this optional service at the beginning, during or at the end of their studies at Bellerbys.
