Order or download our new Learning Opportunities booklets

7 Jul 2009

The new Learning Opportunities booklet is for all those interested in work-based and work-related higher education. It’s for people in work, hoping to return to work or about to enter the workforce as well as those currently studying for a level 3 vocational qualification (in colleges and sixth forms). It complements the Learning Opportunities in the South East website and is also another useful resource for advisers and others who provide support to learners. Learners, potential learners and advisers are all welcome to email us if they can't find what they're looking for.

In addition to providing information and advice about vocational education at university level, the booklet focuses on the barriers to learning that preoccupy mature learners such as time management, juggling work and study, childcare while you study, and coping with redundancy. We have also included advice on using work experience to gain entry to higher education.

Four booklets are available:

• Learning Opportunities in Berkshire, Buckinghamshire, Oxfordshire and Surrey
• Learning Opportunities in Hampshire and the Isle of Wight
• Learning Opportunities in Kent and Medway
• Learning Opportunities in Sussex

Copies of these and our other Learning Opportunities resources can be ordered or downloaded in PDF format from our free online shop.

Learning Opportunities is funded by SEEDA (South East England Development Agency), the LSC (Learning and Skills Council) and the four Lifelong Learning Networks in the South East. We work in partnership with colleges and universities across the South East.
