The Benefits of Studying at TILL
Increase your chances in the job market
Higher education qualifications are
increasingly required in order to gain
employment, or to gain promotion within
existing employment. The University of
Sheffield is a prestigious institution, one of the
elite `Russell Group´ Universities. A degree
from Sheffield counts for a lot in the job
market.
Employers value the qualities developed
during part-time study. Completing a degree
whilst working, raising a family, acting as a
carer, etc., demonstrates commitment, the
ability to set yourself a goal and see it through,
high levels of personal organisation and time
management. All of these qualities are
important to employers. Simply by completing
a part-time degree, you can show that you
possess them.
By studying for a degree within The Institute
for Lifelong Learning, you can improve your
chances of getting a better job without having
to give up your present one.
To meet new people
One thing you are sure to do whilst studying is
meet new people; people who, like you, have
chosen to study part-time in a subject that,
like you, they find interesting.
Because of our small class sizes, students get
to know each other well. Friendships are
made, and students often meet up for a chat
or a drink outside of classes. Many students
describe the support and friendship of tutors
and other students as one of the most
rewarding aspects of their time at University.
Because you can
The Institute for Lifelong Learning opens up
the resources of the University to a wide
population. Those of you with work, family or
other responsibilities might find it difficult to
attend courses during the daytime. Now you
can work towards qualifications in the
evenings. Whatever your reason for doing it
might be, you can do it.
