We are delighted to say that our courses up to Sunday 11th December 2022 are now full. For the college this is a great position for us to be in, however, we realise you may find this disappointing if you wanted to come on a course before Christmas and haven't yet applied.
Please take a look at our brochure below to see what courses we have from January to April and of course you can find out more information, and apply, on this website.
For people who have already applied for a December course either through the website or by filling in a paper enrolment form, please bear with us and we will get in touch with you soon. You may still be able to do your December course.
As we are an adult further education college, you must be over the age of 19 by 31st July 2022 to apply for a course.
Our courses are funded mostly by the West Midlands Combined Authority and are for people living in the West Midlands county which includes Birmingham, the Black Country areas including Wolverhampton, Sandwell, Dudley, Walsall - and Solihull and Coventry.
People who live in other areas of England may be eligible to apply for our courses but this is not guaranteed - please contact our Admissions team on 0121 472 0116 or email [email protected] for all enquiries about our courses.
Check here to see if you are eligible to apply for a course and for information about how we run our courses.
