Improve your prospects
Our courses in English, maths and IT are ideal for anyone looking to get a job, or improve their prospects. The courses are flexible and lead to a nationally recognised qualification. If you think you might benefit from some extra help with your English, maths or IT skills then we can help you work out which areas you want to improve on. You might even get funding to cover the cost of your learning so you can work towards a qualification without stressing about the price.
Boost your career with relevant work-based training
National Vocational Qualifications (NVQs) are ideal for those in the workplace who want to learn on the job and develop their skills. NVQs are work-related, competence-based qualifications which reflect the core skills and knowledge required to do a job. We offer NVQs in IT, Customer Service, Team Leading, Management, Health and Social Care and Business & Administration.
