Welcome to Riverside College. It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to your Staffordshire University course delivered at Riverside College.
At Riverside College we recognise the benefits of students completing their higher education course closer to home. With the convenience of a local college and outstanding value for money, alongside a distinctive education experience which provides excellent results, our students are able to achieve their potential and progression in their chosen career.
Our inspiring tutors working together with our Pastoral Worker for Adults and Higher Education offer high levels of academic and pastoral support. You will be stretched and challenged academically whilst developing cutting edge professional skills to ensure that you stand out when applying for employment or promotion.
Ryan Turner, Head of Higher Education (Riverside College)
I would like to extend a very warm welcome to you as a Staffordshire University student studying at one of our partner institutions. You may be studying closer to home, or studying a specialised course that matches your interests, but you are also a student of the University and part of the Student community.
The Partnerships team and the academic Schools at the University work very closely with our partner institutions to ensure that you, our students, have a great experience whilst studying your Staffordshire University award.
I wish you all the best for the coming academic year.
Prof Annabel Kiernan, Pro Vice Chancellor – Academic, Staffordshire University
