Although every effort is made to ensure the accuracy of this publication, it is intended for guidance only. The College reserves the right to withdraw or change classes or fees as necessary. For further information please refer to our website. www.centralnottingham.ac.uk Central College Nottingham is the new name for South Nottingham College.


Welcome At Central College Nottingham we have a very successful and active Adult Education team who can run courses at community venues around Nottingham City and County as well as in the main College sites. The types of courses we offer vary from Computing skills to Art and Craft and Personal Development. We can run a mixture of non-accredited courses aimed at re-introducing people to education and to give adults the confidence to join a College course. This brochure gives an idea of the variety of courses we offer – if you have ideas about other courses that are not listed, then please contact us – we are responsive to suggestions! The Adult Education team also offer a wide range of pre-employment courses. These are aimed at people who are looking to improve their skills in literacy and numeracy and learn new skills to either change direction in the job market or improve their existing skills in a wide range of employment areas from Retail, Cookery and Administration. The courses also help learners with their CV and interview skills.

COURSE FEES Unless otherwise indicated, courses in this guide are FREE to people ages 19+ and in receipt of certain benefits.

Funding restrictions mean learners can only enrol on ONE Community Learning funded course during the academic year.

These include Job Seekers Allowance, Employment Support, Employment Support Allowance (ESA) and Universal Credit. The College requires you to sign a declaration on the enrolment form confirming this and that your intention is to use the course to develop skills and knowledge to help gain employment.

Community Learning funded courses are identified by this icon

Some courses are funded by Community Learning (CL). Community Learning is intended for personal development, cultural enrichment, intellectual or creative stimulation and enjoyment. It is also learning development along with local residents and others to build skills, knowledge and understanding for social and community action.

SHERWOOD TEXTILE & COOKERY WORKSHOP The College works in partnership with The Textile Workshop (TWS) and Sherwood Cookery Workshop (TWCS) offering a wide range of accredited courses in crafts and cookery in Sherwood. To enrol on a course at these venues please call in person to Maid Marian Way or Beeston or call 0115 914 6414 . Guidelines for choosing a course: Accredited courses are co-funded by the Skills Funding Agency. Funding rules allow each learner to complete a qualification once in their lifetime. To help ensure learners select a qualification once, each course title has a qualification code attached e.g (HTC), (STO), (JSM). You should ensure that the code is different for each course you choose. College staff who enrol you can give you guidance. New learners: Can enrol on more than one level 1 course, as long as the course chosen have different qualification codes. Returning learners: Can enrol on any level 1 course listed, as long as the course(s) chosen have different qualification codes to any NCFE courses previously completed.

For further details of the courses listed please check the website www.thetextileworkshop.co.uk or contact Karen Taylor on 07809 158606.
