Are you an adult aged 19+? If you don’t hold a work-related level 3 qualification, you could be eligible to study a fully funded level 3 course under the Government’s ‘free courses for jobs’ scheme to help you gain the skills you need to get the job you want – whatever your stage of life.
The programmes are being delivered to support adults into employment.
If you are 19 or over and do not already have a level 3 qualification or higher, you can access a free level 3 qualification. A Level 3 qualification is equivalent to an advanced technical certificate or diploma, or A levels.
If you already have a level 3 qualification or higher, but you earn below the National Living Wage annually (£20,319) or are unemployed, you can also access these qualifications for free. This is regardless of any qualifications you already have.
Some of these qualifications are available to study online or part-time.
You may be able to get help to pay for childcare, travel and other costs.
The qualifications could help you to gain skills that employers value, improve your job prospects and earn a good wage.
You can find out more information about the scheme on the Government’s website here.
You dont just need to have left school to become an apprentice, we have apprenticeship offers for all ages and are a great way for adults to retrain for a new career. Whatever destination you’ve set your sights on, an apprenticeship will help you get there.
At South Staffordshire College our students come first, and everything we do is aimed at helping you to realise your full potential. We are about careers not courses and our expert staff will make sure you have the skills and knowledge needed to give you that competitive edge for when you start your career within your chosen industry.
As a school leaver, you will be treated as an adult, within a friendly and supportive environment. You’ll enjoy more freedom and independence, and you’ll make many new friends, all with the same passion and journey ahead as you. As an adult, we understand you may feel uneasy about returning to education, but there is no need to be. We have smaller class sizes and supportive tutors to make you feel very welcome.
