There are several options available to help reduce financial barriers to learning. Our teams are always on hand to answer any questions you may have.

ACL receives funding from the Education and Skills Funding Agency to deliver courses to Essex residents. This funding could cover some or all the costs of your course depending on your circumstances or prior achievements. A few examples are below but please come and talk to us so we can see what you may be entitled to. •

Maths and English courses including GCSEs could be free if you don’t already have a C/4 grade or equivalent

Essential Digital Skills programmes could be free for those with basic IT skills assessed below level 1

If you are unemployed or earning a gross annual income of £18,525 or less you could be eligible to complete a level 2 accredited course without charge

The new level 3 entitlement means that adults without a full level 3 qualification like a Diploma or A-Levels could undertake an accredited course that’s fully funded from the National Skills Fund

www.aclessex.com/financial-support 08

If you are in receipt of certain benefits or earning a gross salary of less than £18,525 you could receive a 50% discount on non-accredited courses

“I didn’t achieve much at school in the 80s and wrote myself off as incapable of understanding Maths and Science. I signed up for my GCSEs with ACL in my early 40s, not expecting much, and got the highest grade across the board in Maths, Science, English and Psychology.”

Foreign Languages We offer a range of language courses, whether you’re learning for fun, holidays or work, begin learning today. Improve your vocabulary in a range of languages with help from our professional tutors. Taster/Short Courses

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.

A short course for people wishing to try learning a language before committing to a longer course. No previous knowledge is necessary.

Advanced

Starter For complete beginners who have no previous knowledge of the language. By the end of the course you’ll have the knowledge and confidence to ask and answer simple questions, and will be familiar with a handful of useful everyday expressions. 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.

www.aclessex.com | 03330 607 002

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. Using a wealth of authentic materials, you will practise expressing your needs, wishes and opinions and will develop the ability to understand and discuss topics of general interest.

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.

www.aclessex.com | 03330 607 002

“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
