Part time learning

A part time course might be a good choice if you are working, looking after a child or need to build your confidence up.   

If you are over 19, you might be surprised at the range of part time courses available. Some part time courses are free, and others have a small cost. You can do courses online, at college or somewhere in your community.

If you claim benefits make sure you speak to your work coach before signing up to part time learning. This is because starting a course might affect your availability for work.
