Student destinations
Successfully completing your higher education
course is a huge achievement, and each year at
Bedford Corn Exchange we invite students who
have shown outstanding achievement to our
annual Graduation Ceremony.
Where our students are now...

After studying a Higher Education course at the College, the majority of our students ended up going onto full-time study or work. Our courses are the perfect way to gain the qualification that you need to pursue your dream career, without all of the university fees.
