The greatest university on the planet (we reckon anyway) is always innovating and leading the way on many issues that affect us around the globe and these news pieces reflect just that. So if there’s a free course or bit of news on the agenda then hopefully we will pick it up and stick it on the next Open University news.

Football fans reassessing their careers in the New Year have a great opportunity to boost their prospects.

The degree, which is undertaken primarily via distance learning, has been devised by The Open University in partnership with The Football League Trust.
