Maddalaine Ansell, University Alliance Chief Executive, has been quoted in a story in The Sun about the proposals for Accelerated Degrees, under plans announced by the government.
She said:

“Students are crying out for more flexible courses, modes of study which they can fit around work and life, short courses that enable them to get into and back into work more quickly, and courses that equip them with the skills that the modern worker needs.”
