Modular Skills Programmes are part-time, short and focused and are being offered in a flexible manner, allowing participants to gain important skills without taking a considerable period away from the labour market.
Each module/programme is stand-alone so that participants can gain skills and put them into practice immediately in the workplace, but modules are also accredited in such a way as to provide building blocks to a full qualification should the student so wish.
These are free for all at Level 6, free at all levels for Returners and the unemployed, but the employed must pay 10% for Levels 7, 8 and 9.
