Retail Solent

Retail is a uniquely dynamic and varied sector that requires a flexible approach to developing its next generation of retail leaders. Southampton Solent University offers the perfect solution. It recognises that off-site training is not often an option, with many retailers preferring to develop their own unique branded training. By specialising in accrediting retailers’ own in-house training and mapping it to a retail degree, any knowledge gaps are easily addressed through a range of bite-sized professional development units. This is ideal for those who would like to achieve a Foundation Degree in Retail or the BSc (or MSc) in Retail. From banking to beauty to book sales, Southampton Solent University meets the increasingly demanding expectations of today’s omni-channel shopper. Training is firmly anchored to your company’s strategic priorities and live projects. At the same time, as one of the country’s leading universities specialising in the sector, we help managers harness emerging techniques and technologies to transform your company’s customer offer.
