Courses
All of our courses are vocational –
which means they are ‘related to work’ and lead to a recognised City &
Guilds qualification. That means the government will fund them and we
don’t have to charge you tuition fees! If you don’t want the
qualification, then you probably need to be looking at a leisure
course, perhaps offered by Learn Direct. Amongst our students are
those that are retired or do not need computer knowledge for their
work. They say that although they don’t ‘need’ the qualification for
work, they enjoy the challenge and the sense of achievement when their
certificate arrives!
