Accelerated Foundation in Business, Finance and Management
Study our Business, Finance and Management Foundation in two terms
Our fast-track Accelerated Foundation programme offers you the same benefits as our 3-term programme in just 2 terms. This means you can start your Foundation programme in March and progress to university study by September.
The UK's financial services sector is one of the best in the world, with London being an established a hub for companies and investors globally. The Accelerated Foundation is designed to develop skills in economics, accounting, finance and management. On this course, you will benefit from studying at our London campus, located close to the capital city's centre in a setting of excellence and entrepreneurship.
