Why We Exist

Learning should fit into life, not take it over.

The biggest barrier to learning is often not motivation. It is finding a route that works around everything else.

Flexible Online Courses grew from years of experience supporting learners and seeing the barriers people face when trying to access training.

Employment, family responsibilities, location and confidence can all make traditional learning difficult to fit into everyday life. Online delivery gives learners more control over when and where they study.

Although the learning happens online, there are real people behind the platform. Our teams help learners understand their options, enrol, access their learning and get the guidance they need along the way.

Our purpose Remove unnecessary barriers.

Make it easier for people to build skills, knowledge and confidence.

Our mission Keep flexible learning human.

Clear information, recognised routes and real support when it is needed.
