We’re here to help you achieve the goals you have set your sights on throughout your life. It has been an incredibly difficult time for many of us since March 2020. Now, more than ever, it is essential that Essex residents have access to the skills, qualifications and support that they need. However, it’s much more than skills and qualifications, crucial as they are, it’s also about supporting you in everyday life; your health and wellbeing, your sense of community belonging, and your confidence and belief in yourself.

Lifelong learning matters to us! Whatever your ambitions for learning might be, we’re here to support you on your journey.

About us ACL Essex is the largest provider of adult education in the county. We’re at the heart of our communities across Essex making a difference to residents and businesses, so everyone has the chance to make a difference for themselves, those around them, and the places that they live in.

Improvers You should have studied the language for at least a year or be able to ‘get by’ in a limited number of everyday situations, such as basic shopping, ordering a meal and understanding simple directions and times. You will revise previous learning and will learn how to talk simply about yourself, your interests and gain further vocabulary and grammar language knowledge. Intermediate You should have studied the language for 2 or 3 years and be able to exchange basic information about yourself and others and state simply what you did. You will revise previous learning and will learn further past and future tenses to develop speaking, listening, reading and writing skills.

You will learn to converse simply but accurately on a variety of everyday topics, read and understand short texts and write messages and short letters.

Online Live: Virtual classroom based learning

For those who have studied the language for at least 4 or 5 years and who wish to consolidate and extend their skills. It may also be a suitable re-entry point for those who have studied at an advanced level in the past. Using a wealth of authentic materials, you will practise expressing your needs, wishes and opinions and will develop the ability to understand news items in the media and write letters and reports with confidence. Circle This is a high level course for those who have studied the language for at least 5 – 6 years who are already reasonably fluent. Language structures will be revised and communication skills practised in order to improve confidence and increase fluency and accuracy. You will gain a deeper insight into the language and culture.

Thrift Crafts Make a positive difference to our environment by engaging in a thrift craft where we focus on recycling, re-purposing and repairing to give old items a new lease of life. The benefits are far reaching including reducing objects going to landfill, keeping resource costs in producing crafts low, personal wellbeing in making a difference to the sustainability of our planet, and raising awareness of ecology.

Traditional Craft Skills Discover the wonderful world of traditional crafts that have undergone a significant makeover throughout recent times. There is a huge joy in producing hand crafted objects, each with a unique quality that harks back to a previous era steeped in nostalgia. The wider benefits of crafting include developing and maintaining high manual dexterity, gaining understanding of design and creating something from raw, basic materials either for personal use, as gifts or to sell and gain new income.

Adult Learning Course Guide January - July 2022

There is no upper age limit on apprenticeships, so they are suitable for everyone. You may be looking to gain your first step on the career ladder or be looking for a career change. 20% of your contracted hours will be spent in some form of ‘off job learning’ activity. We will work with you and your line manager to set up a programme and agree a learning plan. The apprenticeship lasts from 15-24 months depending on the type and level being undertaken. If you do not already have grade C (or suitable equivalent) or above in maths and English, you will be required to do this as part of your programme. Apprenticeships are also suitable for people who are already employed but require additional skills to meet the needs of their role e.g. promotion or change of job. Apprentices do not contribute to the cost of their programme – your employer will either pay the full amount through their apprenticeship levy or contribute towards the cost with the remainder funded by the government. For further information, please see our fees policy on our website aclessex.com/fees-policy.

We deliver our Apprenticeships across the county.

“I would recommend an apprenticeship to other people as it is a great opportunity to get into the workplace and develop invaluable skills, gaining qualifications and earning a wage at the same time.”

“Apprenticeships enable you to mould a team from scratch to your own way of doing things. They gain the knowledge that they need to apply on the job, whilst learning your way of applying it to your own customers or clients.”

Amy, Business Centre Manager

Michelle, Director of Ellacott Morris Ltd
