Free Level 3 Opportunities

Did you know that if you’re aged 19 or over, you could study for a Level 3 qualification for free? Level 3 qualifications are the equivalent of A-levels or an advanced technical certificate or diploma. You could be eligible if you don’t already have a Level 3 qualification, or if you have a Level 3 qualification but are currently unemployed or earning below the National Living Wage.

There are more details on gov.uk or see the updated course provider list  to find out what’s available in your area.

Skills Bootcamps are part of the Government’s Lifetime Skills Guarantee, helping everyone gain skills for life. They offer flexible training courses for adults aged 19 and over. They last up to 16 weeks and offer participants a job interview on completion. Find out more here
