Courses funded by the government
The UK government announced its ‘free courses for jobs’ inititaive recognising the need to remove the obstacles adults in England face getting back into education. It offers a selection of fully funded Level 3 (A Level equivalent) courses to adults (19+) who do not yet have a qualification at this level.
This offer is also available to adults in England who earn less than the National Living Wage annually (£18,525) or who are unemployed. This is regardless of their prior qualification level.
There’s also lots of financial help available for adults earning less than £35,000 a year, including bursary entitlement for childcare, travel, kit, equipment, IT, and materials.
This offer is part of the government’s long-term commitment to help everyone gain skills for life. Short or online courses are also available, to support adults to get the skills they need to boost their careers. You may be able to get help to pay for childcare, travel and other costs.
South Devon College are pleased to offer a diverse range of courses with this available funding to teach you the skills that are high in demand right now.
