LEAVING SCHOOL is no reason to stop learning. A growing number of post-secondary, sub-degree programmes are available to help nudge your education up to a slightly higher level.

In today's knowledge-based society, a secondary education is rarely enough to secure a good place on the job market.

Having that extra piece of paper can make all the difference when getting that job interview or being accepted to a higher institution.

For mature students, returning to the classroom part time can be an enriching experience that can also help kick-start a stalled career.

Sub-degree qualifications are becoming increasingly recognised and valued by employers and educational institutions.

Aside from the academic and vocational value of a course, simply committing yourself to further study demonstrates a strong drive for self improvement.
