Earn and learn – occupational and professional qualifications

Occupational and professional qualifications can provide you with formal recognition for the work you already carry out in your current job, or they can help you gain higher level skills that could lead to promotion.

How will an occupational and professional course fit in with my life?

Most of these courses incorporate an element of learning within the workplace, whether through work-based assessments (such as adult apprenticeships), the collection of work-related evidence, or work placements.

Some courses do not require you to leave the workplace whilst others may involve day release or evening attendance at college.

Is any help available with funding an occupational and professional course?

Many of our courses are fully funded, which means that there is no tuition charge to you or your employer.
