What is being bought

Published requirement description

The Army Higher Education Pathway is a programme that provides opportunities for approved members of the British Army and selected international Armed Forces to study for degrees awarded by Henley Business School, University of Reading, while continuing their normal employment and progressing through their careers. AHEP offers a high degree of flexibility to learners, building on and accrediting work-based learning and Army Career Stage 1 courses. The academic content is delivered online. Since its launch in 2018 AHEP has been supported by a technology solution which bridges Henley/University of Reading systems (SITS - student record system and Canvas – VLE) and the MOD network. This is achieved through the AHEP Portal, a bespoke solution which also provides a custom designed front-end for students.
