Qualifications and courses


What we offer and how we work

The Learning Centres offer two Information Technology (IT) qualifications for those who use computers on a regular basis, at home or at work.

  • Clait Level 1

  • ITQ Level 2


Experienced tutors

There is a team of dedicated tutors and administrators in each centre that will provide you with an individual learning experience, guiding and advising you through your course from start to completion.

Flexible learning

The Learning Centres are open six days per week, Monday to Saturday. Having the centre open six days per week, and open until 9.00pm on four of those days, gives you greater flexibility.  There is no need for you to attend on the same day or at the same time each week, but we do need you to attend four hours each week.  

One-on-one support

To get you started on the right course we begin by booking you in for a 1-1 session to create your Individual Learning Plan with a tutor.  At this time, you will identify with the tutor your reasons for taking the course, and what it is best to include to ensure that the modules you take are relevant to you. From there, your tutor will create your plan to include the necessary learning and agree with you ongoing learning goals and a final achievement date.

Manage your own learning

At the Learning Centre you will work independently with the support of your tutors when required.  You can book in to attend tutorials – small group sessions led by a tutor, designed for those times when there are specific areas you need help with.  Your learning materials are broken down into easy manageable units of learning.  They have been written to support self managed learning and you can dip in and out of these as needed. 

Your progress will be reviewed regularly as you work to achieve your ongoing learning goals.

Work at your own pace

The overall time taken to achieve your qualification will depend on a number of different points. We will take into account how often you attend, what skills you are starting with and how confident you are using a computer before agreeing your Individual Learning Plan.
