How am I eligible for a free course?

Our courses are nationally accredited and funded by the AEB Budget. This means that there are certain criteria to adhere to. We ask that you first check your location using our Postcode Eligibility Checker. After finding a course in your area you will need to check the following. Are you 19+, Have been an EU / UK Resident for 3+ years & not enrolled on another government-funded course. If these statements are correct, you are eligible and ready to enrol on your course.

How much time would I need to complete a course?

On average we recommend that 2hrs a week is suitable to complete a course in the standard 4-12 weeks. Now this can depend on your learning style, so colleges will offer extensions to those that need extra time. All you need to do is communicate with your tutor and they can assist you.
