A range of free fully funded online introductory courses will launch this week to help prepare people for new careers and improve existing skills.
Open to everyone, the 26 courses cover a range of subject areas from Nursing and IT and Software Development to Animal Care, Introduction to Warehousing and eSports.
The innovative courses can be completed remotely or through attending a FVC Campus and are specially designed to be self-paced, and have been created to help students learn, achieve goals, develop skills for their careers, help them try something new, or expand their knowledge.
Suzanne Galloway, FVC’s Learning & Quality Manager, said: “Our new online courses are here to support you, whether you’re pursuing further study, making a career change, advancing your professional development, or taking your first steps toward college. Designed with flexibility in mind, these courses allow you to learn at your own pace and cater to a variety of interests and goals. With such a wide range of options, there’s truly something for everyone!”
Lisa MacLaren, FVC’s Learning Services Manager, said: “We are very excited about these new courses. We feel sure that they could lead those who complete them in to applying for further courses at the College, and may even help them to change careers and take their lives in a completely new direction.”
