The University of Bath is delighted to announce that it has joined FutureLearn Campus – an initiative that enables us to offer students and staff completely free upgraded access to University of Bath courses, as well as courses from other institutions who have signed up for the scheme.

FutureLearn offers a wide selection of flexible online courses, which can be accessed from anywhere in the world and work on any device. The University of Bath’s FutureLearn courses have so far attracted a total of over 220,000 enrolments across our 19 different courses. One of our most popular courses is Good Practice in Autism Education, which will run again this April to coincide with World Autism Awareness Week.

The initiative means that University of Bath staff and students can now benefit from free access to course assessments and Certificates of Achievement for completed FutureLearn courses at over 30 different FutureLearn partner institutions in the UK and overseas. Courses are between two and eight weeks in length, with many available to study at any time. Staff and students are encouraged to have a look at the courses on offer, whether they are looking to pursue hobbies and interests, learn new skills, or advance their career.

Prof Peter Lambert, Pro-Vice Chancellor (Learning and Teaching) welcomed the opportunities offered by the new initiative: “I am delighted that we are launching this exciting initiative. Through free access to a huge range of online courses from Bath and other institutions, it offers students and staff wonderful opportunities for extra-curricular or complementary education, whether for interest or professional development.”
