Online Education Course HERE.
Many organisations offer free online learning in a range of subjects and levels. You can explore providers, the subjects they offer and the levels available before choosing. For advice on what to look out for, see our guide to choosing an online course.
As well as Online Education Course only providers, you might also find courses with:
- state funded colleges and training organisations
- universities – you can search UCAS to find these
- large employers in a range of sectors like finance, IT, business and engineering
Courses offered by state-funded universities and colleges are inspected and approved by the government. Private companies offering online learning are not, so you’ll need to check to make sure that courses are of good quality.
The Open and Distance Learning Quality Council’s guide may help you to find good quality online courses.
In the current Covid-19 crisis many providers are extending their online course provision. There are also commercial organizations offering some of their usually paid for courses for free. Make sure to check there is definitely no cost before signing up.
