Inside Short Courses:

How to gain Confidence & Increase your chances of employment 

 

What is a Short Course?

If you are looking into advancing your career or enhancing your studies. It is a level 2 qualification course that is delivered 100% online and can help you gain skills and qualifications that will open doors to further study that will boost your job prospects. All you need is an internet-connected device, and a willingness to learn and we will provide the rest.

To be awarded this qualification, learners are required to complete all mandatory units. Each unit is made up of a set of questions on a (?)web assessment page(?) and an electronic textbook that can be downloaded to view separately. With additional support and advice from your assessor. Every unit is submitted and marked separately.

 

A short course is a great place to better understand or expand upon existing knowledge. These are usually done to study the subject at a higher level or seek employment in a related role.

There are numerous reasons why you should consider a short course.

 

Check out a few of these reasons below:

 

Our courses are fully funded

 

For many individuals, the prospect of racking up tens of thousands of pounds of debt can be a crucial factor when deciding whether to go to university or pursue alternative options like Apprenticeships. It’s funded from contributions made by the government and your employer. It’s free knowledge, applying for a certified short course is an excellent method to learn something new and it would not cost you as much as a university degree. Hence, you will obtain quality education through easy certification programmes at a fraction of the cost of a university degree. Our Courses are fully funded through the Adult Education Budget, your qualification is funded by contributions already paid for by the Government.
