Learner Handbook

Welcome to Lifelong Learning at Aberystwyth University!

Our Learner Handbook is designed to help you get started on the Lifelong Learning Programme - to guide you on what is expected of you and who you should contact for help, support and advice.

The Handbook gives you guidance, for example, on unacceptable academic practice, on the University's rules for submitting assignments and what to do if things go wrong. It is not intended to be a comprehensive document - you may have some questions that are not answered on the package pages - if this is the case, please contact us. 

Take time to look at the structure of your course, the assignment briefs and deadlines before you start studying -  this will allow you to plan your study around other commitments.

One of the keys to succeeding and enjoying the course is regular communication – with us and with your fellow students. Learning has the potential to be an isolating experience so it's very important to remember that you're not alone and there's a lot of help and support out there – if you ask for it!

Enjoy your studies with Lifelong Learning at Aberystwyth University.
