Whether you’re looking to progress in your current industry or want to try something new, building on your existing strengths with a free qualification can help you on the path to a better job.

These courses are available to adults (19 and over) who are unemployed, earn below the National Living Wage annually (£18,525), or do not already have a level 3 qualification.

As well as the courses being free, you may also be able to get additional financial support to pay for childcare, travel and other costs. Contact us to find out what support is available.

Gaining a level 3 qualification could boost your income by 16% and help you stand out to employers; the courses are designed to help you improve your job opportunities and many are linked to sectors that are actively recruiting.

These courses are flexible, offering full-time, part-time or online, and vary in length, so you can find a course that fits around your other commitments.

Level 3 qualifications are equivalent to an advanced technical certificate or diploma, or A Levels.
