This is often a great solution for people who want to improve their skills while working, who want a specific qualification that will help them find a job or who want to study around other commitments.
At Doncaster College and University Centre, we offer a range of adult education courses across GCSEs, further education, vocational qualifications, higher education and industry-related short courses. We welcome students of all ages and backgrounds and offer a supportive, inclusive environment for those returning to education.
We also work with local employers to provide short courses and qualifications to upskill staff, including workplace training.
Whether the goal is career development, the desire to learn a new skill or to turn a hobby into a job, our adult education students develop the knowledge, skills and qualifications they need to meet and exceed their aspirations.
