Skill sets and short courses

Not all jobs need a full qualification and maybe you don’t either. Our short courses and skill sets give you the training you need quickly.

Our skill sets give you specific workplace skills and are made up of one or more units of competency linking to an industry need or requirement, like a licence. Upon completion, you will receive a Statement of Attainment, in some cases this may give you credit towards a higher qualification.

Our short courses will help you gain skills in a specific area to help you get a promotion, change careers or to just learn for fun. Gaining some DIY trade skills, following your creative passion or learning a language are just a few of the pathways you can explore with our short courses.

Short courses have their own terms and conditions, which differ from those for skill sets and determine whether a course will run and eligibility for refunds. Please ensure you read them in full before enrolling.
