Adult education courses are continuing online

Friday, 29 January 2021 10:41

People in the High Peak are being reminded that adult education courses are still continuing virtually during the national lockdown. 

Derbyshire County Council say it is continuing to provide its spring term programme of courses and workshops online - including for skills, leisure and fun.

A wide range of courses are on offer in order for people to gain a new qualification, pick up a new skill or develop a new hobby. These include:

  • Maths and English
  • Languages
  • Digital skills
  • Wellbeing and personal development
  • Art and crafts
  • Food safety

The course brochures are available by clicking here.

Some online courses can be done at a pace that suits you, whilst other courses will be delivered remotely using Zoom where learners will be part of a live class with a tutor and fellow learners.

To find out more, visit https://www.derbyshire.gov.uk/education/adult-education/adult-community-education.aspx. 

There are community education centres in Glossop, New Mills and Buxton, which are currently closed due to the Covid-19 restrictions.
