Courses for adults aged 19+

Our Community and Family Learning courses are for everyone aged 19+ and the great thing is, you don't need any prior skills or qualifications to sign up. Our brand new autumn programme of courses for 2021 is out now, packed with low cost and free learning opportunities at libraries across Nottinghamshire, and online.  

Courses are low cost or free if you're in receipt of eligible benefits.

You can learn something new, explore hobbies and new interests while making new friends, and we can help you learn techniques to better manage your life, or mental and physical health. 

You can even spend quality time with the family and have fun learning something new together with our fun and free family learning courses.

If you're aged 16 or over, unemployed or looking for a career change, you may be eligible for free personalised support with no impact on benefits. We have a team of expert advisors who can help you with job searches, benefits claims, CVs, job applications, interview skills, volunteering, work placement opportunites, and more!
