Our work

As a distance learning provider, partnership working enables us to reach out to even more people who may benefit from studying with The Open University in Wales. We work with community groups, employers, trade unions, schools and colleges and other partners to make higher education accessible to all.

In the community

Our work in the community focuses on those who are traditionally under-represented in higher education, such as those living in Communities First areas, carers and disabled people.
