Graduation
A unique graduation experience
We are proud that we are able to offer our Higher Technical Education (HTE) students a unique graduation experience. With a grand procession through the city centre, culminating in a ceremony that takes place in Exeter Cathedral, we truly believe there is no better way to celebrate your achievements. This exciting and rewarding event is much enjoyed by our students and we are often told it is the perfect way to end their time studying with us.
“Graduation is a way of recognising all the achievements and hard work put in over the past three years.”
Lewis, BSc (Hons) in Health and Social Care
