STUDY LINK is a suite of short subjects designed to prepare students for university study. If you haven't studied for a while or just want to brush up on your skills or fill in some knowledge gaps in a particular subject area, a STUDY LINK subject may be the solution for you.

All are self-paced on-line subjects, some are longer than others. Some are skills based, others deliver specific content. They range from about 14 hours of content to almost 40 hours of learning.  You can start them at a time to suit you.
